These sound fabulous! Are these men's fragrances? May a woman indulge, as well? They sound fabulous!
They are all men's, but I believe I've seen the Hermés advertised online as unisex. For sure you could indulge in that one, and I highly recommend it! I know fragrance is not for everyone especially on men but when I wear the Hermés, I'm always stunned when people don't jump my bones.
Other scents that really do it for me are pumpkin pie or molasses cookies baking in the oven... or any of Aveda's rosemary mint products.
Geez, you'd think I could come up with something even a little bit manly.
:redface:
I am sure there is SOMEthing in the Dove, but I can assure you that it does not leave you smelling like the average bar of soap. I think that most people, if they have a decent diet and bathe, smell best just by letting their natural scent waif a bit.
I am a fan of my soap and deodorant (when I where it--which is only to work these days).
Let me know if you like either.
Call me silly, but I like the smell of lubricating oil. I even find it a little erotic, but that's only if it comes with the right man. There are also other scents from the technical side, like metal, or wood. I remember that I always liked the specific smell in a metals repair shop where I've spent a few summer weeks working. The smoky arome of burning wood is great too.
I don't think I have a favorite cologne or perfume, I like anything that smells fresh, rather than flowery or sweet. This goes for both, women as well as men.
Tobacco can smell good, but not if it's stale. I don't mind the smell, but it's not smelling good either. However, if it's fresh, probably a cigar or pipe, it's best.
From what I hear Pumpkin Pie is very manly... :biggrin1:
