6. trumpet and trombone valve oil
talk about fermones ? Tubas will stalk you....
i used to think it was cool to use a combination of 3 or 4 cheap cologne/after shaves in high school,yeah it was cool alright I smelled like a cheap department store. A tuff question since everyone smells different wearing the same stuff sometimes.
it is wierd to smell a scent years later worn by someone you had a crush on when you were a kid.I started sniffing the woman in front of me at the super market because she was wearing the stuff an old girl friend used to wear several thousand years ago,she almost hit me with her jar of pickles.

9. I hate men's colognes! Always have, except for one guy who I knew
who smelled a tiny bit coconutty. I prefer people's natural scent. Not sweat or anything, just their own. Don't like cologne for dogs, either.

11. For me personally, there are three I alternate between depending
on mood and occasion.

Issey Miyake - L'eau de Issey

Jean Paul Gaultier - Le Male

Armani - Aqua de Gio

The Gualtier is excellent, but very strong, so not really suited for daily use, it's more of a special occasion type thing.

The other two are both fairly subtle and work as an all around type fragrance.

Plus, especially in the case of the Issey Miyake, it's not extremely common, so you have the individuality factor :)

17. Narcisse for women?
I think that's what it was called, and I don't know if it's even made now.

When I worked for an ambulance service in Peoria, my partner's wife came in and used the phone. I used the phone after she did and smelled the perfume she was wearing. In no time every one of us were at the phone taking turns smelling the perfume she left on the receiver. It was intoxicating! I've never had that reaction to perfume before or since.

For me, I usually stick with the old standbys; Drakkar, Polo, Obsession for Men, CK1, Cool Water.

19. I really like ...
Clinique Happy - it really does make me feel happy. :) Also, and I hate to admit this, I like that really cheap Vanilla Fields perfume. I wear it a lot during the day because it isn't too strong.

I don't like very many colognes for men - I usually just prefer a nice aftershave!
