Which fragrances do you like to smell on a guy?

OP I'm assuming you are a straight woman.

R1 And I'm assuming you're a classless cunt with no appreciate for finery.

No cologne, trashabelle. Especially none on the pits. Who wants to lick that shit up?

Oh silly me thinking most of you weren't whores without normal dating/social lives.

Bleu for Men Chanel. No competition here.

natural musks only/no frags

Patchouli, OP. I queer for “chill” guys.

Op is a freak and a whore.

^That's a good one. I really wish these smelly queens that linger in their dank cloud of Axe Body Spray and dried cum would really stop trying to ruin my party here

Patchouli is the worst stench of them all. Nothing "chill" about it.

Citrus Bigarrade

Terre d'Hermès

Lauder for Men

R7 Love a good Patchouli frag. It can really range in olfactive profile. Two good ones I recommend are Javanese Patchouli which is a bright citrusy woody and Psychedelique by Jovoy which is sultry and warm with really nice sillage. Both are out of the price range of the rotten 16 year olds trying to ruin my thread.

Panflaca Merrivadge

OP is this queen

Lol r13, that isn’t chill! These guys use the pure essential oil. But I appreciate knowing there are glorified versions.

Guerlain Vetiver, Obsession for Men, Terre d'Hermes, Mugler Cologne.

OP is Yankee Candle Angela.

Cangela.

OP is this womyn

The first guy I was conscious of being sexually atrracted to was a USAF captain who worked with my dad. We were frequently at their house for family get togethers, and he wore a cologne (or might have been an aftershave) that came in a very large bottle (like Maker's Mark size) with an ornate turquoise and gold label, but I don't remember the name. This was in Germany so it might have been a European brand. Never seen it here, but it was very light, had a citrus and spice smell, but old fashioned, almost like a gin and tonic, nothing like the eye-watering "clean" scents that young guys hose themselves down with now. I've smelled a couple since that reminded me of it but I'm not about to ask another dude what he's wearing. Just thinking of it, I can see him mowing his lawn in his shorts and tactical boots...

Jovan Musk oil for men. I go wild when I smell a man wearing that scent. Cheap shit or whatever,it seems to trigger my horniness to off the chart levels.

The smell of a freshly washed body is what I like to smell. I rarely meet men who wear any sort of fragrance.

OK, OP. I’ll be serious, let me think..hmmm...

Leather (can they do that vegan?)

Cedar

Clove, Anise.

Vanilla

TOBACCO! That’s it. I want him to smell like cherry tobacco, like they used to sell in bags at the grocery store. Divine scent. Pipe smoke smells bad, but the raw tobacco is heavenly.

R22, that sounds like 4711.

R25. Try Mugler's Pure Havane, Pure Malt and maybe Guerlain's L'homme Ideal Cologne, which is on the cheap but a great cherry almond fragrance with tobacco facets

[quote]^That's a good one. I really wish these smelly queens that linger in their dank cloud of Axe Body Spray and dried cum would really stop trying to ruin my party here

Poor delicate flower.

No one gives a fuck, OP.

Look at all these aggressive, smelly whores. Clearly showing they DO care by responding and trying to convince themselves their tasteless existence is the right one.

Someone joked that I was the sponsored perfume shill Sebastian but I'm actually this fairy

Actually he comes in here halfway smelling the seats of cabs and walking in pubs just for a whiff. That's me.

Oh I remember 4711, so clean smelling. I wonder if they still make it?

natural musks only/no frags

They do. It costs about 6 dollars

I have the perfect cologne for all the low class whores in this thread. Maybe a couple squirts of this and your grindr hookup won't slam the door in your face next time?

Eau de Buttstink

Hammam Bouquet by Penhaligon's

Eight & Bob

Irish Spring, baby!

(Close 2nd: Dusk by Herban Cowboy)

R41 If a guy is wearing Hammam Bouquet or Le Male your chances of hitting it off go up by 50% or so I'm told. Aventus -25%

OP, disregard all these aggressive assholes who resent the fact that you appreciate the architecture of a good scent. All the "natural musks only/no frags" trogs can go take a hike. Wearing a scent is no different than wearing clothes, for cripes sake--it is a form of expression and can go a long way to conveying mood, personality, taste, etc. Anyone who can't appreciate that is sadly tone deaf.

As to your question, here would be my picks: Encre Noire (Lalique), Reaction T-Shirt (Kenneth Cole), White (Lalique), Coriandre (Jean Couturier), UdV (Ulric de Valrens)...

R22, thank you for raising the intelligence quotient on this thread and for providing us with an alluring story. I am pleased to inform you that the cologne your first sexual crush wore was none other than Muehlens 4711 Original Eau de Cologne, which was created in 1792 but is still in production today. Check out its history at www.fragrantica.com. There's links there for purchase (it's sold on Amazon and elsewhere). I'd like to suggest you buy a bottle, spray your bedroom with it to invoke memories of your captain, strip down, indulge in some self-love, and report back to us with all the sordid details.

Bless you R44. Great picks. Lalique makes a great fragrance.

R47 I'm sorry you've been emotionally scarred by someone that doesn't know to choose and apply perfume but I think you've become that monster.

[quote] OP, disregard all these aggressive assholes who resent the fact that you appreciate the [bold]architecture[/bold] of a good scent.

Mary!

^And I'm the crazy one because I don't have things like this saved to my computer

R44, Thanks! You can't go wrong with Lalique--they consistently hit all the marks with their interesting, well-constructed fragrances: distinctive, complex scents; way above average longevity; gorgeous bottles; and shockingly reasonable prices. Why people waste $$$ on Creed, Bond No. 9, Tom Ford, etc., is beyond me. Another line I can wholeheartedly recommend is Jo Malone. More expensive than Lalique but the extraordinary longevity makes up for it; you can spray two/three sprays and it will last all day (14+ hours). The Lime Mandarin Basil is exceptional.

Nobody cares, OP.

Are there any Lesbian scents, or are these all from/for the patriarchy?

Aramis

Dylan Blue

R52 Haven't found a substitute for the quality of Green Irish Tweed yet. Roja Dove says cool water is pretty much the exact fragrance but he's a fraud. Love Jo Malone. Yann Vasnier did Tobacco & Madarin, both English Oaks and made my favorite from the house of Divine, L'homme Sage. Sometimes money does mean quality.

Gin and regret

Tom Ford Neroli Portofino is based on 4711 but with longevity and more punch.

I haven't used cologne or after-shave for decades. In general, I prefer natural odors. If I can detect an obvious fragrance, it's a turn-off.

Watch this beautiful man talk passionately about fragrances. He's cultured, well dressed, I could just eat him up. It's scientifically proven that men who appreciate the art of fragrance are more financially and mentally stable not to mention attractive compared with sluts who post on DL and make unfunny lesbian jokes.

This is a gorgeous fragrance by the way. Put some of y'alls Christmas money towards a purchase.

OP wears parfum de Cheryl.

I really like Egoiste, Tiffany for Men, Knize Ten, Eau de Campagne from Sisley, Philosykos from Diptyche, and Nu EDP from YSL.

Egoiste!

r61 = "but that's not funny" once again proving Lesbians have no sense of humor

Somebody should write a book about class consciousness and the fragrance industry. The hostile reactions to fragrance here are pretty over the top. I suspect it's because most good scents are (deliberately) wildly overpriced and most people can't afford them on a regular basis.

Whatever happened to that fragrance critic at the New York Times who had the posh name? Chandler Burr or something?

R65: Everyone I don't like is a lesbian-- A tasteless queer's guide to being a miserable cunt on the internet

90s era Eternity for Men was such a panty (or boxer) dropper. But they've changed the formula since then, and now it just smells like cheap soap.

R68 Yeah reformulations have ruined a lot of really good fragrances. It should be illegal

Old Spice and Clubman are the only ones I find sexy on another man.

Old Spice I love it reminds me of my dad

I bet R63 smells really good.

I only like speed stick

Eau de Douche.

Where do you buy these prestige fragrances from? The best department stores in my area are Macy’s or Lord and Taylor, and they only have the usual fashion designer’s fragrances.

R80 Try Luckyscent, Fragrancenet for discount deals on most designers and some upper class niche houses. Notino also used to be good but they stopped selling in the US and now are based out of the UK I think

Basenotes Splits forum is a good source for decants, particularly for expensive or niche brands.

Only cheap hookers buy decants

Talking from experience, I see.

Dior Sauvage on the right guy can make my panties moist af.

I kind of collect discounted scents. Classic Trusardi is a strong 80s scent that I still use rarely and sparingly. I have three tins of Rive gauche that I’m hoarding. Bulgaria dumped their aqua amara so I stocked up. Same with Calvin Klein man.

I also love comme des garcons avaignon for a cold night. Reminds me of church.

I wouldn't trust anything from Bulgaria.

R86 Morrissey apparently wears CdG Avignon

Any women’s fragrances that are good on a man?

I think someone mentioned Shalimar in a previous thread.

Charles Gross is a big sissy queen that wears women's perfume. Here's his recommendations

Tom here also reviews men's and women's fragrances pretty evenly.

Fragrance really IS important as a gay man IMHO. It’s a way of communicating your preferences without being overt. Yet it can be flirtatious. It’s a great tool.

Royal Oud.... I also like Royal Bay Rum.

R89, I think Cuir de Lancome, Tabac Blond (by Caron), Cabochard by Gres. and Green Water from Jacques Fath are all easily worn by men. And many of the high-end fragrance lines now seem to be pretty unisex. I like Passage d'Enfer from L'Artisan, and many of the Serge Lutens fragrances from Shiseido.

BTW, I'm very discreet when it comes to wearing scents. My goal is for my fragrance to only be noticed by someone in very close proximity to me, not by just anyone at the grocery store. If strangers are noticing my fragrance, then I've used too much. Like many things, if you want to add more, you always can, but it's not that easy to try to remove it if you've over-applied. I like scents on men, but I don't like them to be too powerful.

What’s a cheap fragrance that either is so good it owns its background, or eclipses its origins and could pass for high art?

I actually like scent on a man if it makes him smell nicer. Unfotunately, scent is very subjective, so what some people like I hate, and what i like other people hate.

I like florals, chyphres, fougeres. I dislike oriental-spicy.

I use a Louisiana Hoodoo Attraction oil. Have gotten good comments on it.

What does it smell like r97? Where do I get it?

R96, please don’t tell me you like the ozonics and aquatics.

Aqua d’Gio. Blecch! 🤮

[quote]What’s a cheap fragrance that either is so good it owns its background, or eclipses its origins and could pass for high art?

Evening in Paris

The Attraction Oil. It's got a cinnamony smell. I wear it in a couple of dots on my neck and my wrists. It's subtle and lasts about four hours.

R101, Describe it’s effect. Thanks for the link.

Colognes are for uncool people. Either trend-chasers, or wealthy but tacky Europeans/South Americans. I don’t know a single genuinely cool guy who wears a perfume. Patchouli is ...okay, but most guys just don’t bother, and I’m glad. I prefer the smell of unwashed scrotum and feet. I really do!

There are some classic musky scents that I’ll sometimes detect on a tourist here in NYC, and I’ll think “mmm, that’s nice”, but I always assume I wouldn’t want to have a conversation with that person.

Just wearing ANY cologne says a lot about a person.

You’re missing out r103. That’s much to broad of a generalization.

r102 "Alleged to attract money, love, luck, success, or whatever you desire."

The guys I've dated who have said something about it have been insanely curious as to what it is and loved the scent. It's subtle but seems to do something to people.

Aqua d'Gio drives me fucking ....instant hard on

Oh, and they have other supplies with the same formula:

i will follow you down the street if youre wearing issey miyake 'l'eu'.

some guy was wearing a cedar based fragrance on the subway that was intoxicating

When I wear Jicky, which was introduced in 1889, my imagination asks if someone in the audience for 'The Rite of Spring', back in 1913, where the audience nearly rioted, was also wearing it. The idea that I'm smelling a scent that people knew over 100 years ago is humbling to me. I remember reading that L'Heure Bleue (1912) is an exceptionally melancholy scent (it is), because the creators could foresee the coming Great War. Caron's Tabac Blond and Chanel's Cuir de Russe were both introduced after the end of the war, when women started smoking in polite society, and new scents needed to be developed that didn't clash with the cigarettes. Scents mean more to some of us than others. I care about the history and the poetry behind some of the great scents.

I just happen to work in a fancy building, in a fancy city, where the luxurious elevators are crowded with fancy men, each luxuriously scented with fancy, exquisite cologne. Holding my breath until the critical moment, when each escapes, it is only then when I inhale. I swoon.

My personal favorite: Christian Dior’s Eau Sauvage (The original! Not the nauseating new version that shares a similar, but abbreviated, name.)

Also love: Chanel’s Pour Monsieur; Hermès L’Orange Vert; Guerlain’s Imperiale; Santa Maria Novella’s Colonia; and 4711.

Women’s fragrances that I’ve worn - but very sparingly - include Chanel No. 5 and Chanel No. 19 - both in the Eau de Toilette formulation. No. 5 has a cold, floral scent that doesn’t smell too feminine when worn by a man. No. 19 is a fresh, green fragrance that is very unisex, in my opinion. Love them both - but don’t over do it.

R103 You're just a slob and a philistine, it's nothing to feel proud of.

YSL Splendid Wood.

As others have stated, if you haven’t discovered colognes and parfums, you truly are missing out. It’s no different than collecting fine wines, being a connoisseur of artisan cheeses, or visiting multiple art galleries.

Each scent is so many things: a mood, a feeling, a memory, a discovery. The variety is as broad as the creatures of the rain forest. And discovering the different tiers of quality ingredients is it’s own special journey too.

Years ago I despised scents. But as I found some I liked, and gradually expanded my collection, my “palate” became remarkably more sophisticated and sensitive — I’ve actually matured and evolved, it’s truly been a delightful hobby. And this doesn’t mean I need to smell cologne on another man to be attracted to him — not at all! But I do love having signature scents of my own. Because I use it sparingly, I’ve only received compliments.

For those of you wishing to explore the higher end scents listed here, I swear you can literally go on EBay and buy tiny decants so that you can try it and wear it several times before deciding if you’d like to invest in a full bottle, anywhere from say 3 - 10 ml. Sometimes the decants are even a little pricey depending on the maker, but most can be had for $10 - 20. When I first started collecting scents, I would actually blow a few hundred a few times s year so I had a huge variety to play with. So fun! Just be careful that the scents you buy are authentic and from a seller with great reviews. I always feared purchasing something diluted or a knock-off, but I was careful in who I bought from. If you buy a bunch at once from the same stellar, you often only pay one shipping fee.

Killian's Straight to Heaven.

Patchouli and Amber is the best. This erotic blend is documented by the Ancient Greeks and the Ancient Hebrews in the bible.

R95, Here's a completely unique scent, that I really love, even though I usually prefer rather high-end colognes. I guess you could say it's sort of 'incensey', but it really doesn't smell like anything else. Some day, I just dab a tiny bit on my wrist, and find myself sniffing my wrist all day, because the fragrance is so delicious. I worked with an older woman who asked me about it, and she thought it was amazing. I'm not a snob when it comes to fragrance. I'm happy to buy something I like from a head shop, if that's where it's available.

Old Money

I love Drakkar Noir cologne by Guy Laroche. It smells crispy and spicy.

Kouros by YSL (the vintage version)

Dior Homme Intense

That one sounds good, R116.

R113 and r109 have got me intrigued, too.

Egoiste Platinum by Chanel. And that Gautier one where the bottle looks like a sailors chest. Tré Ghey!

R113, does this site look legitimate? I can’t find any small samples on eBay, and the real thing is awfully pricey.

The right fragrance for you combines well with your BO and PH factor. The smell test is not from the bottle but from your skin after a few minutes. You're welcome.

Fragonard’s “Cedre.”

Any vetiver scent (Creed, Carven, Guerlain, etc.)

R122, Yes, that's a legitimate site. I used to belong to a fragrance discussion board, now discontinued. People were very willing to share, and very honest. Fragrance bloggers work very hard for their reputations, and wouldn't sully them with shady practices. I've shared fragrance samples with people all over the world, including a very nice Countess in Scotland. I've had people purchase fragrances for me, and ship them to the US, when I've been struggling to find a scent. Fragrance posters are usually pretty nice. I've also purchased fragrances for people overseas. Some Guerlain scents are described as having a Play-Doh scent. I had a friend in Finland who was baffled by that. So I bought a whole package of Play-Doh, and shipped it to her. She was very pleased to finally understand what the rest of us were discussing.

Great! Thank you, R126.

NOBODY FUCKING CARES, OP.

Apparently over a hundred people care, R128.

I wear luxurious refined fragrances, some of them classics, some of them niche. However, my favorite smells are young macho guys stinking of sex, testosterone, and cheap sprays, or the latest "classy" (what they think of as) colognes, applied with a heavy hand.

The smell of a guy just after he farts does it for me.

Thanks, R44 and the others who chipped in, it sure looks like 4711 is the one I remembered. Weirdly, it came up in conversation with my Mom today--she said she bought a bottle of it for my dad while they were stationed in Germany but he wouldn't wear it, he was an Aqua Velva guy, so I wonder if my dad's boss's wife took it off her hands and that's where it came from. I'd wondered if I misremembered the size the way kids do but it looks like I was right and that bottle would last for years at that size.

Nix on the erotic fantasization scenario though--that handsome young captain retired a Colonel in the 1990s, went on to work for Martin Marietta and retired from there about 10 years ago--him and Dad stay in touch, family Christmas letters and occasional reunions of their squadron and so forth, and these days he looks like a cross between Dick Cheney and Bill Moyers. Time is cruel. But I saw that Walmart sells small bottles so I'm considering buying one and seeing if it's the same as I remember--one thing I've noticed with age is that my perception of scents has subtly altered, almost as if I've lost scent receptors the way you lose night vision. Who knows, maybe my husband will take to it.

Eau de P.U.

[quote]Clothes (unless steeped in dryer sheets) don't create migraines for the people sitting next to you.

MARY!

Eau d’Hermès

you want argue that fragrance is appealing with someone who confesses he prefers the odor of cheese dick and athletes foot?

R136 No, that's why I told them to fuck off in the very beginning of the thread and not bother but the same animal instinct drives them to be aggressive and childishly combative and contrarian is the one that wires them to find those decaying bacterial smells arousing. They're fools because the right perfumes actually amplify those "natural" odors.

OP you don't seem to understand that you can't control a discussion on social media.

To the person who was interested in all that hoodoo curio stuff (pure cinnamon oil is an irritant, don't rub it on your cooch), try real deer musk or civet. Animal musks are some of the most powerful aphrodisiacs.

R138 I've been interneting for awhile now, no need to tell me how it works. That's why you've seen all the negative, lonely try hards negging this thread get shut down in a blitheful and indifferent manner. If you're not interested in good smelling men no need to bring your drama and unfunny memes to a thread about it.

OP still be mad.

If I blocked you, how many of the "nobody cares OP, lesbian, lesbian, lesbian, OP is a ___" posts would disappear? The majority of the posts here are on topic and you're still acting like everyone here agrees with you. I know of some great lavender based frags that might sooth your temper and provide some tranquility. Rosemary is historically used for mental clarity and can ease depression symptoms. You seem very unhappy with your life.

Anything but cologne.

R139, Can’t. I’m vegetarian.

OP why are you so angry about being a Lesbian? Is it that time of the month, or are you PM?

R144 Ambergris and Hyraceum are ethically harvested as they're both excreta. Anya McCoy claims to make cruelty free perfumes with animalics by making a tincture from hair collected near the scent glands.

r137 if you hadn't been so needlessly aggressive in your original post and every time after, I think everyone would have stopped trolling you. As it is, you're too much fun to irritate because you take it all So Seriously. Learn to laugh a bit and relax and you'll find that you will have an easier time of it, especially here.

Note that the hoodoo Attraction Oil isn't pure cinnamon oil, it's a mixture in a base, with some curios embedded into it. Cinnamon is just one ingredient. I never had any issues with it being an irritant.

Here's the actual recipe:

Compare this with my own traditional Attraction Oil recipe:

ATTRACTION OIL

Lovage Root Chips (for love)

Cinnamon Chips (for money)

Lemon Peel, grated

Essential Oil of Sweet Orange

Essential Oil of Lemon

Piece of Lodestone

Piece of Pyrite

Top with carrier oil

(e.g. almond oil which has been dosed with Vitamin E to prevent rancidity. I use a "glurp" of same to each gallon of almond oil and mix well.

R147 "Everyone" = you, posting lame simpsons memes and showing off your mommy issues. I'm not being trolled. You're just obsessed. It's really very boring.

R148 Interesting. Do you sell your own?

OP is a VERY delicate flower.

Pay attention to meeee. Why does this retard think a lesbian would even be interested in what men want to smell on other men?

R103, I hope you find the prince of your dreams--you know, the one with unwashed feet and scrotum--and live happily ever after in your fetid castle.

love the hoodoo recipe, i need a batch!

I’m the one who said I prefer the smell of balls and feet. Not “dick cheese” and “athlete’s foot” (I have standards, for fuck’s sake). I later said that I’m interested in some of the colognes that other, friendlier DLers mentioned. I’m also the one who asked about buying samples from a certain site.

There is no connection between preferring certain body odors and being argumentative. I was feeling a little rowdy last night, is all. Sorry, OP.

How would you connoisseurs describe the smell of crotch and ballsac. It is not like regular underarm BO. Base of what, undertones, highlights?

Maybe the female version of that.

What you're smelling is bacteria breaking down and mixing with sweat and sebum so it'll vary from person to person depending on diet and what type of environment that bacteria flourishes in.

Oh, my sides! You obviously have no idea of what ABA even is. Nobody claims it will cure autism. Chelation doesn't, either.

Estée Lauder Private Collection smells like a fancier Irish Spring. Totally unisex green chypre, and not at all girly-smelling. I get tons of compliments when I wear it.

I would never compliment anyone wearing any degree of Irish Spring.

I really don't know anyone my age who wears cologne of any sort and I'm surprised how many DLers seem into it.

My dad said that it was a big thing in the 80s when he was in high school and college, that he and his friends all wore it-- Polo, IIRC. But I don't remember him ever wearing it either or any of his friends/relatives that age.

I remember being at a Knicks game about 10 years ago and the there was a guy behind us wearing heavy cologne and my uncle said to my dad "it smells like the 80s" and Dad thought that was hilarious.

r201 subliminal Degree shill

Do you make this much sense all the time, r203.

I thought it was funny R203

Some woman changed seats at a concert last night such that she was suddenly sitting across the aisle from me. The stench of her 'perfume' was so severe, after ten minutes, I had to move. It gave me a headache that took two hours plus to come back from. Plus it smelled just awful. Something very sour. I couldn't believe someone would actually pay money to smell like that.

Maybe you can explain it then, r205.

LOL, sure R207

Irish Spring is a deodorant. So is Degree.

He wrote "I would never compliment anyone wearing any degree of Irish Spring" which makes it sound like "degree" was stuck in there subliminally to promote Degree deodorant.

ohhhhhhhhhhhh...thank you, r208. I feel so dumb.

Irish Spring is a soap, though.

I am the candy man of chaos. My scent is mysterious unprediction. Belts are useless against me.

Well, I wear Degree Cool Rush and Neutrogena shower gel. That's it.

R54 Jo Malone is a "she". Very suitable for discerning lesbians with style.

No frags/natural scents only

women complain jo malone scents are too masculine.
