Aaron, do u recommend having at least 2 different colognes, one for day time use and one for night time? what cologne are u wearing?

[AlphaMconsulting]

I recomend having 2 colognes. I don't do the one for day and one for night. But I do like to mix it up every couple of days or so.

[AlphaMconsulting]

Sorry for the confusion! You can spray once on the neck and on your wrists. Don't lose too much sleep over this. Just don't overpower.

Hey Mr. Marino...... I'm definitely eating up all the advice you have on the different fashion tips. Question for you, what is the best way to apply cologne that doesn't have a spray? Using your finger to apply on your neck and cheek leaves the appearance that you don't have enough on, but anything more may be too much and also can leave a stain on your clothes. Any suggestions on how much and the proper way to apply??? Thanks

Mike

Mike,

apply a few dabs to your neck and then a bit more on your wrists. This will disperse the fragrance over a larger area and won't over power. I would just put the bottle up to your wrist and slide it upside down about 2 inches. This should do the trick

[arkibet]

Just a question... can people really recognize the scent well enough to know if you're wearing a dated scent?

[AlphaMconsulting]

Yes they can. Just because you may not pay attention or notice, doesn't mean that the person standing next to you can't.

I enjoy your posts. Re: handshakes: TOO MANY guys either are limp wristed, grab the fingers or squueze like you are comming over to date his wife. Geesh, learn how to give a good handshake guys!

There is a bit of hypocrisy in fashion. Things that are out of style are considered no good, but then we constantly see old trends being brought back. I personally don't choose to pioneer bringing back old styles because I can hardly manage the new ones.

@jrg305 actually most chicks prefer a guys natural scent. Just find some deodorant that compliments your natural smell and you are good for 95% of occasions. HOWEVER if you are doing something where you are dressing up and you are going all out with the cufflinks and the nice suit you should probably put on some cologne. So like for weddings, nice dinners with your GIRLFRIEND etc. My personal rule is that until a girl is my GIRLFRIEND I don't use cologne around her, otherwise you seem try hard.

[jrg305]

I prefer a guy's natural scent...but that's as another guy into guys :)

I´m going to conquer the world with a cologne? LMAO

I don´t think so pal.

I´ll conquer the world with my shaved balls.

[Narbliros]

I dig this.

[advasia]

study came out recently, women dont like cologne on the wrists, neck and torso is the way to go.

[advasia]

Dated colognes? From a guy who wears pocket squares? lol

[MrPotatoheadd]

@sk84alife LMAO!!!

[kartikeya1985]

naah. Aaron, i have more than 50 colognes. But whenever I wear dated colognes, I get compliments. I think this is a debatable issue. Modern colognes and aquatics are good summer options, but I figure they are wimpy. Try the following colognes: kouros by ysl, giorgio for men, quorum, azzaro pour homme (cant miss that), rive gauche pour homme by ysl, halston z 14 etc. They smell MASCULINE. Like colognes with balls if you will.
