More cologne stuff ...

Found these thoughts on scents. Anything thoughts/opions/experiences with any of

the below listed scents?

BLACK -- by Kenneth Cole
Kenneth Cole

is all about fashion for the urban man who favors classic looks with cutting-edge style, and its latest cologne

reinforces that mission. "Black" is described as a "modern combination that's both fresh and sensuous at

once."

Best for: I recommend "Black" for a night out with a new date -- it'll emphasize your

mysterious side and the hints of spice will entice her like an aphrodisiac.

Key

notes: mint, mandarin, basil, ginger, incense, exotic woods, black suede

GIVENCHY -- by

Givenchy
Released in 2002, this self-titled fragrance is woody and

masculine, ensuring that women will take notice of your scent without even realizing what's catching their

attention. Subtle yet noticeable, "Givenchy" is the perfect complement to a pair of black pants and a super sleek

dark sweater.

Best for: Splash on some Givenchy the next time

you're hitting the town, preferably heading to a happening nightclub or supper club.

Key

notes: tangerine, grapefruit, coriander, cedar, breath of hedione, olibanum wood

MARCH JACOBS -- by Marc

Jacobs
Known as a refreshing scent, Marc Jacobs is the design

house you want to turn to for modern style that is never flashy, but always noticeable. This spicy and mossy cologne

is so sexy that the ladies will want to know your name -- you can tell them, but just make sure you remember Marc

Jacobs' name next time he has a new cologne on the market.

Best

for: "Marc Jacobs" is just the cologne to wear during the day or on weekends, when you want a

scent that won't overpower, but will always entice.

Key notes:

bergamot, ginger, fig, rose, cyclamen, cedarwood, tonka bean

Similar

to: Fahrenheit Summer -- by Christian Dior

A smooth cologne for the

office, a scent for the busy man, and two classic colognes that every man should own...



BOSS IN MOTION

-- by Hugo Boss
This fresh scent is

just as attractive as the cool spherical bottle it comes in.

Hugo Boss

launched this

cologne in 2002,

and stylish men who work long hours, party on weekends and tone up at the gym, appreciate its musky yet refreshing

scent. It is for the man in motion, after all...

Best for: "Boss In

Motion" is recommended for daytime use, whether you're at the office or spending your Saturday hitting the streets,

running errands, and keeping busy.

Key notes: basil flowers, dry

pink pepper, musk

M7 -- by Yves Saint

Laurent
Now here's a powerful scent for a powerful guy. It's always difficult to find the

right cologne for corporate settings, but your days of searching are over. "M7" is a masculine scent that'll make

you seem like the enigmatic and energetic leader you are.

Best for:

This is the cologne for the office. No one wants to attract the wrong kind of attention in the workplace (if

anywhere at all), and "M7" will make any business wear -- from a power suit to a collared shirt and flat-front pants

-- seem more serious and more attractive.

Key notes: mandarin,

grapefruit, bitter orange, ginger, vetiver, amber blended with rich moss and wood

to: Essenza Di Zegna -- by Ermenegildo Zegna



----------------------

POLO BLUE -- by Ralph Lauren
Ralph Lauren's

"Polo Blue" is fresh and attractive at the same time. It lends wearers that post-shower scent without being

overpowering. And if you want a woman to get dirty with you, you'd better smell (and be) clean.



Best

for: A daytime date in which you take a walk on the beach, have a drink at an outdoor

terrace, or attend a sporting event.

Key notes: patchouli,

geranium, amber wood, melon

Similar to: Echo -- by Davidoff.




ACQUA DI GIO -- by Giorgio Armani
Introduced in 1997, "Acqua Di Gio" has

earned a reputation in the cologne hall of fame. Armani's fragrance is a classic: it's refreshing and reminiscent

of a relaxing outdoor lifestyle that includes lounging at the beach.

Best

for: Reach for your bottle of "Acqua Di Gio" next time you're spending a casual day with

friends, family, and/or the woman you'd like to get beached with.

Key

notes: rosemary, jasmine, bergamot, lemon, lime, mandarin, coriander, marine note, freesia,

cyclamen, cedar, patchouli, moss, musk, hint of wood, ocean breezes

N

OTE: Part of wearing a cool cologne has to do with knowing how to wear it. The

following are some tips on cologne care and application:
· Don't spray it

onto your clothes.

· Do go for pulse points like your wrists, behind

your ears, and the base of your throat. Ankles and the back of your knees are good spots too.



· Don't rub the cologne onto your skin -- let it dry naturally.



· Do hold the bottle at a distance of 15 centimeters.



· Don't rush to reapply -- wait until the end of the day before

spraying on more cologne.

· Do keep your cologne in a cool, dry place (a

drawer, medicine cabinet, or cupboard are best).

·

Don't think that what smells great on your friend will smell great on you. It all depends on

your skin's chemistry and how it reacts to the cologne.

I got a sample vial of Kenneth Cole recently and tried it out. It's a nice

fragrance but nothing special and I don't think it's worth the price. Furthermore, it doesn't last quite long

enough for me.

cologne.

Thanks! I was going to roll the
