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?

He tries to change every now and then because he's been wearing it for about 10 years now, but the effect on me makes it stay

An old friend in the early 80s used to smother himself with Paco Rabanne. It was so strong it was hard to concentrate on anything. I caught a whiff of that very smell a few months ago and it was like being flipped back to 1983 (queue Bruce Springsteen background music). Not sure I like it though - it's too strong. What is wrong with just being clean?

I know that a whiff of something enticing certainly turns my head. It's decoration, surely?

Might as well say, "What's with all these well-cut clothes? What's wrong with hessian smocks?"

That Cool Water one reminds me of a past fling and I go all unnecessary when I smell it now . Nothing like a really subtle smell to bring back memories

Don?t wear the stuff myself. Although Musk is not used anymore aren?t synthesized compounds used to add the scent of Musk to aftershave? As you may know Musk is a gland which is situated between the abdomen and genitals of the Musk Deer and who wants to smell like a deer?s privates?
