The scents you have smelled at the department store may actually be what your friend wore to work. Perfumes are composed of different ingredients including aldehydes and natural florals etc, which would each have a different rate of evaporation based on their molecular structure. Unless you smelled your friend's cologne the second right after he puts it on (which I highly doubt), the smell is going to be different from spraying it onto the scent card and waving it around at the department store. Also, there is the question of whether the fragrance is a parfum, EDP, EDT, or a cologne, which are of different concentrations of active ingredients and therefore may have some different variations in the smell.
Fragrances that I find attractive on men are JPG's Le Male and D&G
For female fragrances, the ones I like the most of all time is the classic Nina Ricci's L'air du Temps, because it is a very clean scent that can be worn everyday without knocking out anyone within a 10 foot radius (also because it is the safest scent I know for anyone who may be allergic to fragrances). I also like J'adore, Cartier Delice, and Hermes eau de Merveilles.

Some colognes I would recommend trying some of the brands from for men are from Polo Ralph Lauren, Armani, Clinique and for woman I would recommend Clinique, (Happy or Happy Heart) Givenchy,( very irresistible or amarige) Liz Claiborne (sport an older type but smells good and has more scents) DKNY (BE DELICIOUS or try some of the other scents) these are just of the brands and the scents go to a store like JC Penney's or to Macy's and ask for some samples to try them and see which ones smell best on you as each scent smells differently on eadh individual, going with your own natural body scent. Good Luck!

For men I really like Polo Black by Ralph Lauren and Aqui di Gio by Giorgio Armani. For myself, I have Very Sexy by Victoria's Secret and Fantasy by Britney Spears. I know they sound tacky, but they smell amazing. Oh and Sui Dreams by Anna Sui.
And the reason they smell differently when you smell them in the bottle is because perfume/cologne smells differently on each person. Spray it on your wrist to see what it would smell like on you. Personally, my perfume smells much different by the end of the day than when I first put it on.

I always choose a cologne that get the most remarks. That cologne has to be Armani Aqua Di Gio. I constantly get comments on it...sometimes several a day. Pleasures seems to be pretty good for women, but I am one hundred percent positive on the cologne...get it...it works....
Another great reference guide are websites which list pefume and cologne rankins...do a google search

5th ave by skill of Elizabeth Arden...my husband hates physique spray yet fairly loves this one, this is rather gentle and not cloying. i'm getting a lot of compliments each and every time I positioned on it, from women and adult adult males individuals. inspite of the incontrovertible fact that, each and every man or woman has their very own man or woman physique chemistry, and unique "fragrance", so what smells super on one man or woman could be terrible on yet another - your terrific guess is to hit a type of terrible, terrible physique spray counters on the mall and courteously ask to pattern some scents by skill of sniffint the bottles as a exchange of being doused with them!! LOL additionally, once you do locate one you adore, positioned on it sparingly, do no longer bathe in it, and each physique else will love you for it too!!! sturdy success!
