Mens Cologne

New Cologne for DH is on my to-buy list for Christmas.....Any recommendations for your faves I should check out?I dont think Ive shopped for Cologne in a couple years so Im way out of the loop on what's pleasing to the olfactory these days.

DH typically wears nautica or some other kind of "sporty, fresh" scent. He's a computer geek "guys guy" who likes video games, sports, alternative music, beer, and hooded sweatshirts so something pretty mainstream would please him I think. Nothing too musky or woodsy, nothing too metrosexual or formal, something for everyday, basic smell-goodness.

Re: Mens Cologne

  • I am no help here as I cannot recall what DH wears. However, if you have a little time, I'd say hit the big dept stores and smell the samples. This time of year, all the gift sets are out so you can usually get a deal with some freebie (like a bag, backpack, other-mens-item) along with your cologne, aftershave, deodorant, etc.

  • I like Chrome, Polo Black, and my fave that he wears is Armani Black Code.

  • DH wears Kenneth Cole Vintage Black.  He also has a Burberry of some kind, but I don't like that one as much.

  • I agree about the gift sets-they are usually a really good deal!

    I like John Varvatos and Polo Black.

  • DH always goes back to Clinique Happy...I despise the women's perfume version, but I love the men's version. 

    I also like Burberry colognes.

  • Dh has been wearing Lacoste since the last time I bought him some.  He does need something new.  I do like the scent of Lacoste though.

    I'm going to check out the suggestions above.

  • DH likes original Tommy (my fave), Cool Water and Versace Blue Jeans.  I agree with pps about checking out the cologne counter at a department store.

    To this day, I cannot stand the smell of Polo Sport.  Reminds me of an old ex from high school who I think dumped the whole bottle on himself when he got dressed.

  • F/P Homme Numero 2, but all of them smell great.  Same company that makes Cucina lotions and soaps.

  • Ditto John Varvatos.  I bought it for him years ago and we both loved it.  It ran out and I bought him Gucci last year.  I like Gucci, but we both miss JV, so I think I am getting him a bottle this year
