Cologne, aftershave, etc?

Question

So, believe it or not, I'm a college freshman who has NEVER put on cologne, aftershave, or any other skincare products before (except obviously soap, shampoo and deoderant-- duh). But I've finally realized I need to. Sad it took this long, ain't it?

Could I get some guidance on good colognes, aftershaves and whatever else? Not only that but be able to buy it with a low budget? And also get help on how frequently I should wear it, and when and where I should?

Pretty much, I'm looking for answer explaining everything I need to know. That would be awesome. Oh, and girls, I'd definitely like input on what you like on guys.

Answer 1

Since you've never worn any before, you don't know what you like, so I would suggest going to a dept store and trying some cologne on, only one at a time, to see what smells good on you. Remember that it's better to not douse yourself , you don't want to smell as if you bathed in it.

Answer 2

You NEED it?

I absolutely can't stand men who wear any kind of heavily scented product. If it smells stronger than soap, shampoo, or deodorant I don't want my fiance using it.

I want to be able to smell HIM. I love the way some guys actually smell. My fiance smells wonderful. My dad smells pretty good. People actually have their own innate smells and I'd rather have that than the same cologne or body spray a million guys wear. I smell that all the time. My guy's smell is all his.

That's what I like on guys. Nothing. If they smell BAD, though, of course that's not nice ... I like the natural smell. You still have to use those three products that you've already got! ; )

Answer 3

Why do you think you need it?

I personally prefer men without any kind of fragrance.
