If you're gonna be that picky, then technically cologne is what you wear to go out and aftershave is... as the name describes.

I didn't say it was/wasn't. My point still stands, spraying deodorant on your face isn't a good idea.

I dunno, I'm just confused because I was always told it was about the "hotspots" so neck, behind your ears, that sort of thing, but I'm sure I read somewhere about using it in your armpit which threw me a bit. :confused:

Sorry but wtf!

de-oder-rant i.e. Body spray

after-shave i.e. after having a shave, put it on your face.

anti-perspirant i.e. under-arm - stops you sweating.

It doesn't stop you sweating, it helps absorb the sweat and give off an aroma. Personally I think anti-perspirants are a bad idea, as sweat is your bodies way of cooling you down. If you have something absorbing the sweat, you'll probably end up sweating more to counter-act this, or stay hotter.

If you wash daily and are generally hygenic your sweat should not smell. If it does it's down to bad diet amongst other things. Obviously if you play squash in a shirt and leave it for two weeks it will stink, but that goes without saying

Personally I have Issey Miyake, Lacoste 'Essential', Hugo Boss and Calvin Klein 'Eternity' for nights out on the town sometimes general use and I normally just use Lynx or similar body deodrant during the day.

The next stuff I want to buy is either Joop! or JPG in the status glass.

I asked for, and got, Ermenegildo Zegna for Christmas after I had a good sniff of a page in GQ lol.

Anyway, it's very nice imo, but also very low key, perfect for day to day at uni or work. Not many people have it, or have heard of the brand even which is a change from the norm. Fronted by Adrien Brody btw.

I would go for something more pungent like sex panther for a night out

My bf just uses lynx and it smells good and not too strong. IMO guys who wear aftershave seem to be trying too hard to impress. I hate walking by guys who are reeking of aftershave, but thats just my view :rolleyes:

80% of the time it works all the time

It's quite pungent, in fact it's burning my nostrils.

It's made out of real panthers and is illegal in 9 countries. You know it's good.
