You can test them out in person at Neimann Marcus. Creed Green Irish Tweed is expensive but it's absolutely worth it in my opinion. It's a fragrance that was originally designed specially for Richard Gere back in the 70s/80s. The thing about green irish tweed is that the initial notes are not what makes the fragrance so elite. It's the base notes 2, 3, 4 hours application that are to die for.

Creed's GIT is the only fragrance that women repeatedly compliment me on. Don't let the initial "flowery" notes fool you.

When do you guys wear cologne? I only wear it when going out with my wife, so about once a month. I know there are some guys that wear it to work, but that annoys the other workers.

This is what I have in my collection:
Acqua di Gio
D&G Pour Homme
Kenneth Cole Black
VS for Him 2
Curve (the original)

I'm self employed but I do enjoy looking and smelling good. Always have. Git it from my dad and he his father.
I spray on some some just about whenever I'm headed out the house except to the gym or to run a quick errand and back. Shit, that's what I buy it for to use.

If you want to smell like a Douche you should opt for this trio:

- Hugo (Hugo Boss)
- Emporio Armani
- Ferrari Black

I never use Versace man until recently due to a lot of compliments. That was my least fav until now. I love Armani code! Allure is a good day cologne. I have gucci guilty black which I use at night. That acqua di gio essenza is only for special occasions.

You guys should try Ford Mustang one. My bestfriend got me mustang stuff for my bday because we always go back and fourth and argue for fun and joke around but I think it kinda back fired on him because it smells awesome and I like it.

Colognes produce different scents on skins. What i wear will not necessarily smell the same on you.
Anyways, all good.
Terre D'Hermes now that i'm here.

Jesus is this a real post?! Imagine thinking people are scientifically trying to prove how good their colognes are. Are you autistic?
