    I use an deo roller for everyday use and Dune by Christian Dior for special occasions...which do not arise much, so it's still half full after a year.

    Well, no cologne or perfume. My deodorant/anti-perspirant is scented, but apart from that?

    ...but then, on that vein, my soap is "Pure Rain" the anti-p/deodor. is "Arctic Force" and my toothpaste is "Freshmint". :cool:

    Well, I usually only use my Old Spice anti-persperant/deodorant (it's the "red zone" stuff). It's labled as "Pure Sport" sent...which I think smells nice. I've gotten comments that I smell very nice, and 2 women have actually asked me what I was wearing...thinking that it was a cologne.

    When I go all out and get dressed up, I have 2 bottles of cologne to choose from. Lucky: for him, and Cool Water is what I wear when I think I need a bit of extra sent. :thumb: :rolling:

    Meh. Kinda musky because I don't use cologne, rarely shower (every week or so), and just as rarely use deodorant.

    **** Felinoid. Shower more you scrubber! If I don't shower at least twice a day I feel really dirty. Why not keep yourself clean and fresh, lad? You don't want to be going around smelling.

    You don't really need to shower TWICE a day, unless you've been sweating it up down at the gym. Once a day is perfectly acceptable in most circumstances.

    No perfume. My work takes me around people sensitive to scents.

    In fact, I try to buy only unscented toiletries, though this is not totally possible. I go with least added scent available.

    In a morning to freshen up and be clean for work, and at night after a day at work or whatever, you're bound to have picked up some dirt and grime and sweated a little in the office. Got to be twice a day in my book!

    Hmm. Forgot to specify I use Axe Unlimited as antiperspirant and Irish Spring as soap.

    I agree to that.

    Went perfume-shopping with the girlfriend only a few days ago actually. After I had smelled three different kinds without being able to tell the difference at all to the incredolous looks of both her and the saleslady, I ended up buying the one she liked the best; Good dull old Jean Paul. :rolleyes:

    Whatever is cheapest in the supermarket, which tends to be their own brand.

    I really don't see the point in spending silly money on a designer label - try asking the person you usually sit next to what perfume/deodorant they think you use and I bet they wouldn't get it right.

    Antiperspirant for the majority of the time. I'll use some form of deodourant if I've been exercising hard, but that is about it. Not sure about the make, whatever looks good at the time of purchase, so I go through a few different ones.

    There's a good reason for that :rolleyes:


    And I shower once a day although every so often it's nice to have a bubble bath, I just don't fell very clean after them so I shower for cleanliness and just bathe to relax.

    Again, meh. Girls are still falling all over me even with my musk, so I don't think it's that big a deal. :grin:

    On your side of the pond, maybe, but over here they don't seem to mind so much.

    I use the cheapest thing I find. Currently Nivea deo stick. I have shower once or twice a day in summer, rarer (once every 2-3 days) in winter.

    In fact I wanted to write "I smell like teen spirit" here but of course I won't do that. No. Never.
