Does anyone wear 'mens' fragrance?

Whenever I go for a sniff around John Lewis fragrance section I always come away loving something and 90% of the time I come home and google and they are in the 'mens' range.

To be honest, I would buy but they're always way out of my budget.

So, if you do wear men's frangrance, do you get told you smell manly? Grin

Ive worn Laura Biagiotti's Roma for men for about 30 years. Have had so many compliments.It's subtle and I've not smelt anything else similar to it. i absolutely couldn't imagine it on a man either.

My new favourite (can't afford it though ) is Creed's Royal Oud which is unisex.

It's subtle I meant to write.

I'm so pleased that other people also prefer men's fragrances. I'm currently wearing a ladies Penhaligon (No9) but on the whole I much prefer the spicy scents of men's aftershaves. Now I know that other people do it, I'm going to start buying men's ones!

Me & my OH share Dior's Gris Montaigne. Bought it for him but I love it as well! In fact it's probably slightly leaning towards a feminine scent (was told it's unisex though - they'll say anything to make a sale!)

Not men's scent although I always like a vetiver which is often sold as being for men, but I am using a 'men's' shower gel at the moment which I prefer to sweet fruity or flowery smells.
I do find this categorising of smells as being particularly suitable for men weird.
Anyway if I like a cologne type fragrance on a man then I'm also going to enjoy it on me!
