I always notice some women just have the best perfume and it really does make them more attractive just from the smell alone. I'm wondering, what do you think is the best cologne for a man? Have you ever received a compliment?

When testing out colognes, spray and give it about 20 seconds. Then smell. Wait another 20 or 30 minutes and check again. Then wait a few hours and check one last time. It's amazing how much a cologne will change over time. I've tried some that were amazing in the first smell but hated it later in the day. Everyone will smell different. Try a bunch.

My go to list: Canyon at bath and body works. Great cheap everyday wear

Light Blue by Dolce n Gabanna. Another relatively cheap one. This one smells great on a lot of people.

The expensive ones : Fucking Fabulous by Tom Ford, Nightvision by Victor & Rolfe, Spicebomb by Victor & Rolfe

If you like a super expensive one ( or any price) but can't pony up the money, look for online retailers that sell sample or travel sizes of them.
