Mister M Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Hugo Boss Number 1. The original (and best) of the Hugo Boss range, it has a powerful masculine scent, a little like Azzaro. Distinct from the more feminine aftershaves that a lot of men chose to wear these days - like Aqua di Gio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunfl Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I have used many aftershaves / eau de toilettes over the years and have found that cost isn't everthing. I drowned myself in Brut in the 70s and it seemed to be a favourite of the girls. I still always like to have some on tap and my other half is a fan. I also have used many others but by far the greatest impact from any has been Calvin Klein's Escape. I'm a short, overweight old git but whilst using this on one occasion a very beautiful young lady, immaculately dressed followed me around a supermarkets aisles and stood at the side of me every time I stopped, she never put anything in her basket....perhaps she was a store detective, but I like to think it was the scent. Many people have asked what scent I was wearing when using Escape, but remember skin types can alter the fragrance from one person to another. Best tip, find one you cannot smell yourself when you wear it, seems to work.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summa Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 I think like perfume, not everyaftershave suits everyman. But here go my fav's, Hugo Boss ( can't remember the name the one shaped like a ball.) Caroline herrera 212, Cerutti 1881 and my ultimate fav Givenchy Xeryus, it's smells great! YSL Jazz reminds me of my dad bathing in the stuff when he and my mum used to go to roxys on a saturday night when i was little!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyfriday Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 The only one which I remember making ladies 'swoon' was "Jazz" by YSL about 20 years ago. Haven't seen it for years. It's still around hippy http://www.theperfumesuperstore.co.uk/yves-saint-laurent-jazz-for-men-eau-de-toilette-spray.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
