I like cologne. Sometimes I make myself smell like Calvin Klein: Obsession, Eternity, CK1. I've even been known to wear Polo, for that eighties flashback of my teenage years. I've been looking for that Old Spice odor of a daddybear, but I think they've changed the formula because it doesn't smell like I remember, the scratchy aftershave of older men. Maybe I'm thinking of Brut, or Hai Karate maybe.
Do you think they'll take away my leatherman membership card due to my tastes? I promise not to wear it to the bar. Nope, I'll be unshowered for that - right after a hot wrestling workout!
I swear some of the queens marinate themselves in perfume. I'm not ready to smell like I've been hit by a flower truck.
Perhaps you could try a leather smelling cologne.
Fly and be free! WOOF

Not to prove Patrick isn't the hawt, 'cause he is ... just to show he doesn't take himself too seriously (part of the hawt, at least for me ;-)).
And I do think that being yourself is definitely the hawt. :)
If I do cologne at all, I tend to prefer the spicy/musky/citrus (but not too much) blends.
i also confess to keeping a small bottle of adidas sport in my bag for when i am going straight from school to work, or straight from paramedic work to teaching... if its been a long sweaty day i prefer that not to be too obvious.
fear of my leatherman card being revoked usually prevents me from making these sorts of confessions. i do redeam myself in that my favorite scent on a man is that of cigarrete smoke mixing with freshly washed hair, and maybe a lingering hint of whiskey from the night...
I confess I've become a fan of scents too. I really like one called "Black" and recently
I used to wear heaps of different colognes when I was younger (largely due to the influence of my ex), but I sailed away from them when we broke up. About the only thing that I liked for awhile was Hilfiger Athletic, which had a nice lemony scent.
Once that ran out, I went on a hiatus again.
Now, I find myself buying Lapidus, CK Crave and D & G Masculine. All very different. I drive Blondie at work totally crazy, because she thinks they all smell hot.
I don't mind when a man smells musky, but I can't stand strong BO. Bleach. Different strokes for different folks.
-- Just don't say you use the cologne to mask the smell of whatever you were wallowing in, 'cause that would just be nasty and wrong.
I used to like cologne... Haven't worn it in a long time. I hate how colognes can get stale -- then your laundry smells like stale cologne... However, I AM a product queen -- H2O products particularly. ;>
I only wear cologne when I'm going to be around ladies all day long, like on holidays, I use Tabac, they make it in Germany, and it smells sort of like Cavendish pipe tobacco.
So far, no-one's threatened to take my leather card away.
