I don't know if it's appropriate to dis one, but I've gotta say for me Old Spice induces nausea. I worked with a guy many years ago that thought it was fantastic, and he wore way too much. I've always thought it smelt of urinal cakes and I'll be damned why anyone would want to smell like that.

Let us see. Cheap perfume in your laundry soap. Cheap perfume in your dryer sheets. Cheap perfume in your shampoo. Cheap perfume in your soap. Cheap perfume in your deodorant. If you do hair spray or mousse, more cheap perfume.
All my soaps and such are perfume free and hypoallergenic.

My problem is that my nose gets used to colognes and I can't smell the ones I wear a lot like I used to.
But believe me, I have one called Aventus Creed, it smelt so good that I had to buy it even though it cost £120, but it was a fairly big bottle.
So Aventus Creed is at number 1 for me, it's like sex panther. Even girls who don't like you will hug you in order to smell it.

3) Dunhill persuit.

Oh, crap, I see someone cited Old Spice before I dissed it.
Sorry there, if you want I'll del the post.

A side note for those that might not know and like the really fine aromatics.
There are three stages of aroma. A good perfume is aromatic oil that is dissolved in water and alcohol to help it absorb into the skin. The first smell you notice is the scent perfumed into the alcohol so that you do not smell the alcohol. The second scent is the perfumed water evaporating which blends the first smell with the oil and carries the rest of the alcohol with it. The final aroma is the oil itself and that is what you are paying for. When you shop for cheap 'Opium' spin-offs, what you get is garbage that has the first scent to disguise the alcohol and that is it. This spin-off crap is impregnated into baby oil or maybe vegetable oil, but it is not true perfume.
When you want to sample a perfume, put a dab on one wrist and then go browse the mall for an hour or so. Now smell it. Are you getting what you want? Even if it is good perfume, is it what you want? What you are smelling at the counter of a good perfumery is not what you are paying for. What you smell at the counter of the spin-offs is what you are paying for.
Even 'Old Spice'

Even that $1000 dollar an ounce stuff can be nauseating if worn improperly. I have known many (men and women) that seem to think that if they can no longer smell it that it is no longer there, so to insure longevity, they bath in it I think.
Good perfume is sensual. When I brush close to a women, that is when I should notice the perfume, not a half an hour before she gets there and yes, some men are just as bad except their taste is usually worse.
