Musk

Sewinman

Gents, what is your favourite musk to flatter and enhance your man scent and attract the ladies?

Sex panther is illegal in nine countries (http://sex-panther.com/)...but my favourite is Slazenger Sport Talc all over my body with a liberal splash of Tuscany by Aramis.

What if they smell of Africa...Lynx Africa. And its called 'Musk' when worn by men.

...I think male smellies can be a bit cheesey and should be used sparringly if at all...

I'm with LiT on this one, doesn't mean men should stink just no eau d'toilet.

I smell like a man - of meat! (and cheese)

I only use unscented mitcham to hold back the power of my man pheromones(?)

biondino

Dior Homme - smells like pipe tobacco!

Now I agree with this. Mostly. Because I (simply) *heart* the smell of a Lush soap, called karma. And I have a little bottle of the scent they use in that that I pull out once every other blue moon.

Oooh. That was a bit metrosexual, wasn't it?

I must get back to some more manly activities. Like depilating my legs. :oops:

I've never even considered getting my teeth straightened. Does that help?

Personally i never wear any scent but i find Sure anti-perspirants are pretty good at keeping you smelling fresh!!

Space NK's Blue cologne is amazing, and my gf loves it, so that might become my second scent.

Channel - Allure
Calvin Klein - Eternity
Lacoste - Pour Homme
YSL - Jazz

Got a few other here and there but cant remember what they are.

General rule of thumb always need to smell clean and fresh nothing worse than smelling like a tramps arm pit or similar.

Would that be the version sold down the market? Alongside Cocoa by Channel?

Hmm Id say hugo boss, but I never bother to wear any (Im sure Ive got a bottle of it somewhere that must be 8-9 years old now if it still exists). Im naturally a low odour person even when cycling etc so I dont have any "need" for any scents. If I did suddenly start using scented products again now my wife would get suspicious It has to be said I dont want to be attracting the ladies, I have a goal in life to remain 100% faithfull, I really dont need to put myself in temptations path .

In my single days a "pull" was never marginal enough to be determined by what brand of scent I may or may not be wearing (however the lack of "bad" smell would have been an important factor). The majority of my pulling would be done from across the room, If I had a girls eye already then the "chat up" was a formality.The only scent that was important when I made the approach was a lack of bad smell.

I use the smell-less underarm stuff from Waitrose (get him!) and I have some body shop stuff. Um, what is it? Must ask the gf, she got it for me! Its in a red bottle.

I wash with things from Lush though, they make me smell nice.

...one word...or maybe two...

...bath or shower...

Sewinman

I don't recognise all these girlie musk's :shock: ...they probably have eau de tiollette' on the bottle or some such...parfum etc :roll:

I think it depends very much on the man in question.

If the courting environment is anything like the working environment, a strong cologne can be a piblic service either (a) let you know in advance that they are approaching, so you can make good an escape (b) let you know that they have been (e.g. in order to think of an excuse for why Bikeradar was on your computer at the time) (c) make their presence less painful (d) repel insects.

Though I prefer Bulgari Black.

I try to keep my fragrance collection small these days and only wear them on special occasions like the second coming of Jesus...

To answer Sewinman - because we know you do your best work on the commute, chinos, white socks and falling on top of complete Newbies to this cycling malarkey:

After a commute (and you have to understand I really hate my job and the office I sit in) Lynx Chocolate smelling spray because it was cheap - they're lucky I even wear that.
