Okay, I don't want to smell like something that should have been buried weeks ago. I never wear anything but unscented. What is a good body spray or cologne for men? I really don't have a clue. I bought some of that hatchet men's body spray and not a single woman attacked me. They won't give me my money back.

Seriously though, Something weak that she only smells when real close. Not that anyone is yet but just in case.

None, many are allergic to fragrance and what you think smells good on you may not be pleasant to anyone else.
Don't believe everything you see on a commercial, they have nothing to do with reality most of the time.

I really like the saint Laurent colognes. But if you are on a budget get axe. I'm a sucker for axe. I literally want to hug the guy and never let go cause he smells so good

I vote for none, but if you feel like wearing cologne... just a teeny, tiny bit is all ya really need. Teeny, tiny... really. Otherwise... phew... *ack* *cough cough*

Splash on aftershave is weak and hard to mess up. Cologne, any cologne, is far too strong for modern women to tolerate. So what I do is put on a teeny tiny amount, like the last poster said, and then take a wet washcloth and wipe it all off. What's left is just right. Good hunting.

Nothing you can buy at a convenience store. Go to the fragrance counter of retail store (Macy's, JC Penny, etc) and ask the knowledgeable person at the counter what fragrances for men sell the most. Tell him/her what you're looking for and get some advice.

And then, whatever you get, a single spritz is plenty.

Relying on anybody else's opinion can be useless since fragrances quite often smell different on different people.
I met a man who was wearing Canoe and felt like I could be his just so I could smell him.
I bought some for my husband and it and he didn't mesh...it smelled awful.
But yes, regardless of what it is, a little goes a long way.

That sounds like a good plan. Thanks

I'll chime in and say I prefer no scent as well. Maybe the OP likes women who like scent though. I think you are wise if you do choose a scent to keep it really subtle. You can get used to a scent too, so if you do have someone help you pick one out, pay attention to how much they suggest putting on so you don't start over doing it in the future.
