We no longer have the old cologne thread so i'm making a new one. What's your cologne colection like? Do you have a variety to choose from for all occasions or just a couple that do the deed? I'll start with my current collection.

Latest entry which i picked up today
http://www.manhattanperfumes.com/images/the-one-dolceM.jpg
Dolce and Gabbana the One.
Rather pleasant fruity scent that mellows out nicely after around half an hour. Good afternoon, ealry evening scent imo.

Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue.
Lovely citrus musk, perfect for during the day.

Armani Diamonds
Delicious coconut, almost chocolately, the young ones love this cologne.

Drakkar Noir.
This cologne is king. Enough said.

Boss Selection
First cologne i actually owned, given to me for christmas by a mate.

Issey Miyake.
First cologne i ever wore and still my favourite. I have the concrete bottle shown. =3

Pretty sure i haven't got any others stashed where i'd forget about them.
Next on my list would probably be Boss White edition or Burberry the Beat. Have samples of both of them and they're both great imo. Or the summer edition of Issey Miyake. It's brilliant but still quite similar to the original so probably not worth it. >_<

I found the last thread to be strange, and I feel the same about this one, but I believe Tonez enjoyed it.

My collection consists of whatever relatives have gotten me for Christmas. I don't use any of it so I don't really know what I have.

Lynx Deoderant

:cool:

I remember totally over doing it with the Lynx when I was a teen haha. Sprayed it in my mouth once to try and disguise the smell of cigarettes before going to Science.. eurgh.

Anyhow I've been digging DNKY Red Delicious for a while now

I've smelt Be Delicious and it's quite nice. Is Red Delicious that different?

My collection also began with occasional gifts I used on and off, but it's since become a full-fledged hobby - I rake the net scabbing samples, and read blogs. Perfume is for people who know that smelling great is only obnoxious if you treat fragrance like deodorant spray. And before we go SHIT HIDE PERFUME'S FOR GIRLS YOU DELICATE DAISYBRAIN, actually it's just marketing sleight-of-hand: cologne refers to a specific concentration of fragrance in the alcohol (eau) base, but has since become the umbrella name for male-oriented perfume.

Anyway, the merchandise. I have Lalique Encre Noire (http://perfumesmellinthings.blogspot.com/2007/10/perfume-review-lalique-encre-noir.html), Eau d'Italie Sienne l'Hiver (http://themoment.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/07/10/scent-notes-sienne-lhiver-by-leau-ditalie/), YSL Opium PH (http://www.lapreya.com/fragrance-men/yves-saint-laurent-opium-pour-homme-edt-spray-30.html), Michael Kors Michael (http://www.michaelkors.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod4980001&parentId=cat8304&masterId=cat4801&cmCat=cat000000cat101cat4801cat8304&index=0&tid=P4), Givenchy Gentleman (http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P0950&categoryId=1133), Narciso Rodriguez For Him (http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Narciso-Rodriguez/Narciso-Rodriguez-for-Him-1063.html), L'Artisan Bois Farine (http://fragrantfoodie.wikidot.com/l-artisan), Versace Blue Jeans (http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Versace/Blue-Jeans-637.html), CK One and both Chanel Egoistes.

Boss Bottled - I guess this one's a pretty standard fragrance, but it's nice and light and not too expensive.

Burberry Touch for Men - doesn't last very long, but it's alright. Certainly not ground-breaking, though.

Bulgari Pour Homme Soir - this is probably my favourite.

I have something similar to that Bulgari one, it's pretty nice. A lot of the Armani ones are really nice too. I work at David Jones, and one of my favourite past times is going over to use all the different colognes since the fragrance counter is right near my department.

I have two: DKNY which is empty and Armani black code which I thought was in my car, but I cant find it.

So I have none.

I've been recently getting into some nice fragrances. My favourite would have to be by far Burberry London. It's got a really unique smell. It's also got an awesome bottle to boot!

Another great everyday fragrance is Hugo's EDT.

Anyone tried to these fragrances?

I use this

Except on my bottle it says 'pour homme' so it's totally not gay.

No I did not.

In any case, I have a fiance so all I need now is Brut.
