The Right Kind of Scent for Men
SharePosted on 14. Nov, 2007 by Gallivanter in Thoughts
Chaleur D’animale, Issey Miyake L’Eau D’Issey and Kenneth Cole Reaction. What do they have in common? Me. Over the last 7 years, I’ve been using these 3 perfumes. I was hooked on Chaleur for 5 years before giving Issey Miyake a go. That bottle finished a few months ago and right now I’m on Kenneth Cole’s Reaction. Unique to say the least. Mel loves it.
How do you decide on the right perfume? I think it all boils down to your age, temperament and the environment. Leave the heavy musky scent for the cold and a lighter scent for the heat.
I usually opt for a less powerful scent, that won’t leave a trail of destruction of people’s sense of smell. I’m currently in love with Reaction. Obviously, put aside all the reviews you have read on the perfumes, just go out and give it a try.
Where to spray? Well, keep it at the neck, chest and wrist areas.

earl-ku I’m not a fan of CK and Hugo Boss. I usually go for the unique ones that is not easily available everywhere. Who wants to smell like a common person?
Giddy Tiger For women, I go gaga over J’Adore!

I’ve bought Lex so many different colognes that he told me to stop because there are still some bottles he has yet to open, lol.
Yes, I love getting colognes for my guy

Kenneth Cole? The R.S.V.P. is quite nice too. For men, i think Armani is a good try. Attitude and Code are nice, and also the classic Acqua Di Gio. But i prefer YSL’s L’Homme and Diddy’s Unforgivable. Hehe. For ladies, you can never go wrong with a Dior. I love to collect perfumes. I’m a Gucci fan.

Flo Yup, Kenneth Cole – simply because it’s unique. The rest that you mentioned are just too common.

My hubby is a number one fan of Issey Miyake. I have tried changing it to Hugo, CK but just can’t.He will still go back to Issey Miyake. Hmm..do you think if a man is loyal to one ferfume,he will be loyal to one lady???

deana Issey to me is better than Hugo & CK, but still a common perfume. I don’t think you can relate perfumes to loyalty.
