Guys - Aftershave? Laydeez - Do you approve?

[DrDaddy]

Something in another thread on here spurred me to start this one. Ok, so I admit it, I used to wear Brut 33 when I was about 14. I thought it was sophisticated. Of course, I graduated to Kouros, which used to make DW go weak at the knees. I'm going to secretly buy some and see if she still does. Now I wear (more subtly and not all the time) Blue by Hugo Boss.
Anyone else? What are the female faves?

Issey Miyake for me! Weak at the knees just thinking about it!

Deep blue by Hugo is yummy! Good choice.
Eternity for men by Calvin Klein is another good one, quite musky but not overpowering.
Nice and subtle is always a winner.

obsession and obsession night
ralph lauren safari (guaranteed to get dp a big kiss if he wears it)

Not quite as expensive and trendy as all the rest, but I love all the Next aftershaves! I walked passed someone today, who was wearing Paco Raban too - it took me right back! [swoon]

Oh, I forgot to add Old Spice into my past of shameful aftershaves....
And what was that one that used to be advertised with a bloke's hearbeat steadily increasing as a woman crossed the room and then proceeded to un-button his shirt with highly polished red nails? How about that for old-school advertising. Mind you, it turned me on at the time!!

It was Denim....For the man who doesn't have to try too hard!

I already was....well before the end

She is liking my CKOne at the moment so i am sticking to that cos it seems to get the result i'm after.

I love clinque happy for men, think its a really freah sexy fragrance.

Another vote for Paco Raban for my DH.

Have to say I love Old Spice, but only cos it reminds me of my dad, lol.

dolce and gabbana for DH or gucci

Equipage by Hermes is divine, but only available in Harrods

Would it be horribly embarrassing to admit that Kouros still makes me go weak at the knees ... I'd follow anyone home who wafted Kouros in my direction

I also like Deep Blue by Hugo, and Ghost Man.

romeo gigli and jean paul gaultier

I used to buy dh one with "Red" in the name.

Anyone any idea what it could have been?

Didn't realise this thread was still going.
WigWam - interesting. I checked with DW and she said she still loves the smell of Kouros. I'm not sure I could bring myself to wear it though....

Fahrenheit or eternity are both lovely choices.

Oggsfrog probably deep red

Actually mumsnet men, so long as you don't smell of wee, sweat or hai karate women don't care all that much

fahrenheit is a bit of a no no imo. A bit 80's

Issy here too.
It's what lovers should smell of.

dh smells great in

acqua di gio
Dior Higher
a cheapo Lanvin one called Vetyver (i think)that I got for a song on a perfume website.

I like citrussy ones. He likes Eternity too but I'm not so keen

The smell of aftershave personally makes me feel sick- it's always overpoweringly strong. Just a foible.

My DH wears Issey Mikaye. I think smell is very evocotive....Whenever I smell Issey Mikaye it makes me think of DH in quite a passionate way.

bollocks to my dh and his stupid sensitive nose and his freaking asthma

bollocks to him

Huh... I've never even worn smellies around the seamonstress. I should prolly give it a go - might get lucky!

Fahrenheit certainly did it for me in the late 80's!!!!

jean paul gaultier
