Fellas, What Cologne Do You Recommend?

I'm not big on cologne*; I only wear it if I got a date or going need to dress up (you see, I prefer to be known for my natural scent). I don't like anything that smells too sweet...I can't tell some colognes from perfume.

Anyway, I'm more into lighter smelling colognes or those "sport' colognes. I do like musk cologne, but it can't be super strong. So uh, that's where I'm gonna need YOU to jump in and tell me what I should try, ladies your input is welcome as well.

Update:

Mike, yeah, I used to wear those oils and I do prefer them. Plus, they're cheaper and smell just as good.

Update 2:

@ Mr. Los, that's not true. I actually got more compliments when I wore the oils. The only problem with oils is that they don't have the wide selection.

Update 3:

@ Ant, I've seen that cologne before, but the bottle looks so gay. I'll check it out next time I see it though, lol!

    don't use cologne bruh because it has alcohol in it...not good for our skin. go with the oils from the nearest incense man in ya area...Egyptian musk is what I recommend.

    oh and nice avatar, i love pete rock

  • Aqua Di Gio is a citrusy scent and one that I used to wear 90% of the time. Its fresh smelling and the ladies used to love it. More for summer months though. However, I don't wear cologne much anymore because my sinuses are very sensitive.

  • Cristina hit the nail on the head with my personal choice:

    "Acqua Di Gio" by Armani

    It meets all your criteria

    and is a winner with the fairer sex.

    OK, so, I'm not a guy but my brother wears "Adventure" by Eddie Bauer, and I think it smells really nice! It's kind of on the spendy side, but if you like it enough, then you should be willing to pay the price.

    - Playboy "Malibu"....that one smells good...personally like this one...

    http://media.wwd.com/images/processed/wwd/2008/11/...

    * get something that has alcohol because it emenates from the skin...so people'd smell it...w/o alcohol you'd be the only person who'd know you're wearin a cologne...small tip from Mr. Los...

    - well then I guess it's a matter of preference......

    - lol Ant Boogs that ones pretyy dam good too...

    Armani's 'Aqua Di Gio' or Davidoff's 'Cool Water for Men" Both are light but luscious.
