OMG!!!! Had a coworker wear tons of that stuff….

Very strong and distracting at work.

Told him to knock it off.

I like to have my own, individual odor. That’s why I wear tuna fish sandwich. I put a tuna fish sandwich under each arm. Maybe one or two behind the ears. I don’t smell like any other guy. And it’s economical too because the smell lasts four or five days.

Like any other thing related to fashion of course they do.They come back into tavor again. Lilac Vegetal a mens aftershave or 4711 are very old and still widely used. Both were created early 1800s. I use Blenheim Bouquet created 1902 4711 was popular in the 60s They were spending a lot of money on advertising. When they stopped its popularity dropped. Because of its low price it lost its cache.

Take a bath and you won’t have to worry about pouring on the cologne.

My grandfather had cologne or aftershave that I liked but have never been able to figure out what it was. Twice I have passed by someone over the years who had the scent but did not ask....

Anyone guess what someone born in 1900 would use in Minnesota?

Basically they don’t...
Fragrances are basically classed as oriental, Floral, Citrus, and /or modern.
For example the woman’s fragrance Opium is basically a sweet Oriental Shalimar with a twist of modern updating.
You mentioned Paco Robanne... That happened to be a revision of a men’s citrus fragrance using a new chemical at the time (geranyl nitrile or Lemonile).

I like it when a woman puts a little something behind her ears preferably her ankles.

I only use aftershave which is Pinaud Clubman (the smell of your barbershop) or Brut (because it was free).

The go to cologne was always Lagerfeld.
