Strong cologne

I am probably guilty of too much perfume. When I can't smell it, I spray some more on.
 
Sometimes people don't realize now potent their scent is. And sometimes they apply more because they have gotten so used to it that they can't smell it. Young men tend to use Axe products and they are potent.

I used various Calvin Klein perfumes for years. When "Euphoria" came out, I loved the scent and got some. But... Even when I wore a tiny dab of it, it was very potent. I had to quit wearing it totally when the receptionist at the dance studio told me that I needed to tone it down. She may have been allergic to it or something.

I was once given a gift of some very expensive perfume but I couldn't keep it. I wasn't even able to open the sealed box. It bothered me that much. Instant sneezing, eyes watering... Clearly an allergy.
 
Is there a different reaction when a woman to wears a strong perfume vs a man wearing a strong cologne? I tend to think of old lady perfume when I encounter a woman wearing strong perfume. With a man, they might be wanting to draw attention to themselves.

It’s a little strange when I can tell where someone has been because the scent lingers.

Allergies make it worst when you can’t escape the person. If I got pulled over by a cop with a strong cologne and had allergies, that would be a horrible experience.

I'll take the strong cologne over a ticket any day of the weak. If I got pulled over by a cop with a strong ticket and had ticket allergies, that would be a horrible experience.
 
In this scenario, you definitely get the ticket. The strong cologne just makes the experience worst.

You would be surprised how many young guys are wearing it in their 20s. Some even in their 30s.


Cologne is a very specific scent - more my grandmother's generation. I don't know anyone who still uses it.

Layering is better than multiple uses of the same scent - bath, body oil, and a dab of scent on the wrists and behind the ears should last all day if it has decent sillage.
 
For men, the important thing to remember is never, never, let cologne or aftershave lotion anywhere near your dick. It tastes horrible apparently.;)
 
One only needs no more than THREE spritz of cologne/perfume, one on each wrist, and one on the neck.

But yeah, so many of these young dudes drench themselves in that cheap AXE stuff, lol, because they probably forgot to shower. :D
