Fragrance

I have one that to me smells like someone polished the wood inside a cigar store with Lemon Pledge: Luna Rossa.

Eau de muskee nutsacque

If you go to a REAL perfume shop (not the perfume counter at a department store) you can ask to smell colognes with civet, castoreum, and or yyrax. And with "leather" notes, too.

No cologne is going to smell like sweat, pitts, butt, balls, but there are some pretty rank colognes that smell like testosteroned cologned unwashed men. There is a machine in perfumery that decode any smell. Its literally a dome that you put over the scent the company wants to capture. Thats ho we got late 90s early 2000 colognes.

In principal they could make a scent that smells like locker room but I guess they've certainly run mixes like that by their nose, who gave thumbs down.

Try Quorum by Puig. I guess its a late 70s or early 80s smell. It really does smell like a sweaty sexy 70's spanish stud who's put on some cologne. It reeks extremely masculine and a bit rancid.

White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor! Everyone in the office will remark at how suddenly butch you seem.

Dior Fahrenheit, Zino Davidoff, Yatagan Caron, Kouros YSL, Envy (men) Gucci, Antidote Victor & Rolf, Ho Hang Balenciaga.....!

OP - what locker-rooms are you using that smell musty?

When you say jocks do you mean men or jock straps?

It seems you want to smell like men who have just worked out in a shirt and shorts that haven't been laundered in a year. In which case just do that.

Try Bandit by Robert Piguet OP.

It has 'dark , animal' notes of Leather, Tobacco and Galbanam, which means it has 'funk' in the dry down reminiscent of a pre-smoking ban gay bar at 2am. You'll love it.

Barring a true perfumeries, the original Geoffrey Beane, Grey Flannel is good. Grassy.

I have never known a cologne that smelled so different on so many men as Grey Flannel. Maybe it's a function of how much they put on, but on some guys I loved it, while on others it smelled horrendously, I don't know, sour. Not something I ever wore.

Nothing smells quite as vile as the products of Davidoff.

Great everyday: Luna Rossa

Provocative for night: YSL's Noir or Gucci's Guilty Intense

Sport: Lacoste White

Splurge: Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille

Rose 31 by Le Labo smells sweaty and dirty, in a good way.

If the Rose 31 is too mannered for you, Muscs Koublai Khan is dirtier and muskier.

CB I Hate Perfume Musk is just pure filth. It smells like sex with a sweaty, dirty, drunk chain-smoker in a dirty room filled with rubber.

Try Monsieur Houbigant, but only use the tiniest amount from the tip of a Q-tip. Otherwise you'll just small like a whore.

I heard a story about a mad gang fuck in a locker room this one time which was caused by MH, and afterward, no one remembered what happened. Except the instigator, of course.

I like Cumming. It smells like a video arcade in the 70s; scents of ashtray, fucked ass and burnt rubber. LOVE IT!

Jacomo was always a favorite musky cologne.

'Try Monsieur Houbigant, but only use the tiniest amount from the tip of a Q-tip'

Mais oui Monsieur Houbigant, juste une noisette sur le bout de votre prépuce et voila le parfum de mâle, si enivrant.

Why not just stop showering?

Personally, you sound like a filthy, sick little fuck OP!

Sex Panther cologne,

[quote]juste une noisette sur le bout de votre prépuce

Even in a thread about cologne, les prépuciers just won't let it go. Fromage dicks.

When I read descriptions of fragrances they all sorts of things under base notes, top notes, etc...

What does that mean exactly?

I am only attracted to what's called Oriental scents.

What sort of things should be listed in the base/top notes for an Oriental fragrance?

R21 -- Essences of durian and kimchi

R22

I've never read any of those things before.

It depends on whether you prefer Floral Orientals (look for orange blossom, cinnamon, nutmeg) Soft Orientals (incense, amber) or Woody Orientals (sandalwood, patchouli), R21.

R24

Are Opium or Poison considered floral orientals, soft orientals or woody orientals?

Although I'm not an expert, I'm going to guess those are floral are soft orientals, because those are women's perfumes. Here are the top notes for Opium:

Its top notes are a mixture of fruit and spices, with mandarin orange, plum, clove, coriander and pepper, as well as bay leaf. Its floral middle notes consist predominantly jasmine, rose and Lily of the Valley, in addition to carnation, cinnamon, peach and orris root.

For Poison Top notes: Coriander, pimento, plum, anise, mace, rosewood, carnation. Heart notes: Rose, tuberose, ylang-ylang, carnation, cinnamon, jasmine, lily of the valley

With a little experimenting, you should be able to figure out which of these scents appeal to you most.

Blue Boy Poppers

[quote]Jacomo was always a favorite musky cologne.

The following is what I found online. Which of the following versions, if any, is the most heavily musk? - Jacomo de Jacomo - Jacomo Rouge - Jacomo for Men - Aura Jacomo for Men - Art Collection de Jacomo

The worst decision in the history of the world was when Tommy Bahama stopped making St. Martinique. Beyond divine.

I mourn the original Caswell-Massey Newport. Speaking of Caswell Massey, tricorn is masculine.

(Also gone, Floris Carnation but that wasn't so masculine obviously.)

I don't get wanting to smell like locker rooms or cigar stores--that is so not sexy to me.

I like men to smell fresh and clean.

Never before... more than I have to be!

Well, sniff R31's dick. Prolly sprays that nub with febreze all day, and wishes, and hates.

Is it true fragrance lasts longer if stored in the refrigerator?

When all the world loves a lover, all the world loves....MANDOM!

Clinique Chemistry. Little bit soapy, citrusy. Very light.

r22 made me snort coffee out my nose. I love you r22.

R25, both perfumes are floral orientals, as R24 correctly says.

STOLEN JAQUES by Huge Ackman

R35. That's bizarre! An old friend of mine used to say he had the worst body odor! Really stinky like old sweat. My friend was from Woodstock Vermont.

This was the early eighties.

I just bought a sample/decant of Amouage Gold Men's EDP. Anyone have history with it?

Please enlighten me, but are fragrances, or most, just chemical concoctions with nothing natural in them?

[quote] Please enlighten me, but are fragrances, or most, just chemical concoctions with nothing natural in them?

You're not going to get the kind of fucked up musk scent everyone's talking about from "nature" unless you jack off or kill a bear and rub its testes all over your body. Some other fragrance notes may originate from natural sources, but be processed to the point of being virtually artificial.

The truth is that for almost all these fragrance substances, nobody knows how safe they really are- most haven't been tested and many are unknown as they are "proprietary".

But, "if it gets you cock, it's worth it" is the general consensus.

It's worth pointing out that natural scents, such as those that come from essential oils are not necessarily safe either. Like the artificial scents used in perfumes and colognes, they can cause allergic reactions in many people. For some people, these reactions take years to fully develop, also known as being "sensitized".

However, the risks of essential oils are far more understood (they've been around longer) than the fragrances of the month that the perfume houses keep pumping out which potentially have much wider reaching negative effects.

Then again, something can't really be called decadent, if there's no risk involved. :)

I have the Mistral Cedarwood Marine soap (pour homme!) and it smells like a classy [italic]ass[/italic] (read: musky) Irish Springs. It also comes as a fragrance.

There are a bunch of Fragrance Experts on YT. Plenty of them really like M7. It is one of my favorites. They seem to be unanimous in HATING a scent called etat libre d'orange secretions magnifiques. I believe that ELdO is the manufacturer of Secretions Magnifiques. the most reviled scent on earth.

I used to have sex with a lad whose underarms and crotch had this deliciously goaty smell. I used to get him to rub his foreskin under my nose while sitting on my face. It was a fabulously rank sweet sour scent unique to him. Wish I could have bottled it: I could have been a new Tom Ford.

I want to fuck this guy hard and deep.

[quote]They seem to be unanimous in HATING a scent called etat libre d'orange secretions magnifiques. I believe that ELdO is the manufacturer of Secretions Magnifiques.

It is ELdO and it's vile. I didn't pick up any of the sexual aspect, only metal, sea water, and blood. The best way I can describe it is having your wisdom teeth out and going home and taking a long Vicodin nap. You wake up with a nasty, oozing, bloody mouth and try to rinse out the congealed blood and fresh blood with salt water. That is Secretions Magnifiques.

Cumming by Alan Cumming smells like a video arcade at 4 in the morning; tobacco, sweaty leather, burnt rubber and a certain faint redolence of the after aroma of vigorous butt sex. I wear it to work when I know I will be dealing with assholes. I really like it.

For shits and giggles I bought Takei's Oh, My. Surprisingly it is a rather nice citrusy-floral scent. Good to wear to brunch.

For expensive: "L'Antimatiere" by Les Nez For cheap but good: Tommy Hilfiger "Tommy" or "CKone" applied sparingly Medium range: "Jockey Club" by Caswell Massey

L'Antimatière is lovely, also their violet scent, the unicorn one.

Also L'Eau by Serge Lutens for guys who like a clean, outdoorsy, minimal scent.

Check out Wood by Dsquared. There's a couple versions but I think it may be exactly what you're looking for OP. It's not that easy to find, but sometimes they have it at Sephora.

Another alternative to check out is Terre D'Hermes.

If you want BO plus Rightguard, go with Creed Irish Tweed.

Chrome combined with a heavy workout used to work for me. The key was one spritz on your ass.

Sécrétions Magnifiques is supposed to be a joke, the smell of cum. Like their Fat Electrician, I'm certain they released these purely to raise the brand's profile. État Libre d'Orange do some well regarded perfumes such as their collaboration with Tilda Swinton.

I love Dirty Spray from Lush. I buy it for my boyfriend. It's clean and masculine, but smells like something a 70s porn star would have worn.

I wish Estee Lauder would bring back the cologne, Metropolis. DL fave, Liza Minnelli, was the spokesperson for the cologne on TV. .

Pi (the symbol) by Givency is very subtle and masculine.

You're still not going to get laid, OP.

I wear Fioré.

How vivid!

Sexual Chocolate by Randy Watson.

This stuff might work. Called 8.5 it looks like a bottle of poppers.

I hate this fucking troll like no troll ever before:

[quote][R59] meet [R32].

Please choke on something, you fucking cunt.

Muscs Koublai Khan - Serge Lutens is the funkiest and earthiest musk ever, without being remotely fecal or BO-ey. It's like fucking on a bearskin rug in front of a roaring fire with James Bond.

Agreed, r65. No cunt needs to meet his greasefire like that cunt.

[quote] But I wish there was a fragrance out there that smelled like locker room/jocks, kind of musty. Anyone know of any?

Try Scoundrel, by Joan Collins.

When something happens--and it will!--you can always say, "It wasn't me, it was my Scoundrel."

I used to adore fragrance of all sorts, from home fragrance to cologne and lotions. Now they seem to all induce migraines, very unfortunate. I used to have a very high fragrance tolerance, I don't know what happened.

I like Clive Christian No. 1 for every day.

Some of these were nice. Haven't tried them in 20 years, formula could have changed.

Im with you r69. I used to love wearing cologne but now it gives me a serious headache. Wonder how that happens?

My favorites were Acqua di Parma, Clinique Chemistry, Dior Fahreheit, Chanel Egoiste. I also had some Clinique Calyx that i loved even though it was for women.

I used to love fragrance; still do, but as the prices have increased astronomically for artisan fragrances, so the number of people actually wearing any scent has decreased to almost none. Who buys it anymore?

I love Dior Fahrenheit, Kenzo Body Kouros, Gucci ‘Homme’. I would love to buy myself Tom Ford Tobbaco Oud but I think £150is quite excessive.

It's called Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS).

R75 Though not afflicted and still enjoying scents, that is a good attribution for many people. I try to avoid synthetic fragrances, but so many even heritage fragrance houses use them now. I suspect the pthalates, and other chemical fixatives, and these chemical scents are to blame. I knowseveral people like this now, and some are still quite young. There are so many needlless chemicals we come into contact each day. Body wash and lotions are another source of this chemical wizardry.

Actually OP Patchouli Oil will give you the scent you’re looking for. Applied by itself it can self like a musty scent. But if you mix it with Angel for men cologne it sweetens to an amazing scent.

Patchouli oil: even more disgusting that Axe.

Which is exactly what OP is looking for.

Albacore in Spring Water

A bit of fragrance history. Winston Churchill ordered a special fragrance for his personal use from Floris of London (nine generations in the same family, retail store in Jermyn Street, London). It's still sold today. The other famous use of this unique scent? Eva (Evita) Peron of Argentina.

Pit musk in the morning after a night of hard fucking.

There is nothing as appealing as the smell of Aqua Velva and soap. It's so clean and old-school. If he smells faintly of cigars, too, it puts me over the top.

Gucci Guilty Absolute - is very unusual. It may be what OP is looking for.

Ivory soap in the morning, then an afternoon workout.

We don't want to smell you, OP. Just keep yourself clean and fragrance-free.

Do elder gays know they have that old man smell? What is it anyway. It's clogging.

OP, it's called Eau de Manstinque, and it's from Joan Collins.

It's exactly what you've wanted.
