    What is the best smelling cheapest Cologne?
    Been using Drakar, Armani and Obsession and ready for something new. I have heard good things about the Tommy Boy, Curve, Acqua Di Gio-but everybody seem to have one of those.
    So looking for something unusual and exotic.

    And please, no Karate or Brut recommendation :D

    Cheap and good smelling, find someone who sells Avon, get a brochure and look up the men's cologne section. It will only be about 2 pages out of 150 or so. A 100 ml spray bottle should run you between $16.50 to $19.50. I currently have a bottle named Paradigm and my wife loves it. And for only $19.50 for 100 ml spray I get all the $ex I can handle and more.

    What are you, some kind of elitist?

    Here's the problem, cologne smells different on different people because of body chemistry. It's like picking speakers; it's all subjective. Considering the archaic scents you are using, I have to agree it's time to upgrade. I was just at Nordstroms this weekend and thought Silver by Calvin Klein was nice, but again, it's all up to you. Some people prefer sweet, some citrus-y, some flowery. I'm lucky, I just let my wife decide what she thinks smells best on me and be done with it. Her's is the only opinion that matters anyway :).

    What do they say about it?

    I've been following this thread with some interest. I think Smokey's about to put the moves on somebody. What's your opening line, Smoke? BTW, I've found that a shower and a nice smelling shampoo works better with the down-to-earth marryin' type.

    Thanks guys for Paradigm, Silver and Sweat recommendation. I see if I can get some sample in the mall. The problem is I'm not married and don't have luxury of her opinion. And the GF come and go.
    But one thing I have learned about the Cologne is get the smallest size there is as the smell get old after a while.

    Hey smoke, there is a cologne called farenheit, it is very very hot. Stay away from this stuff, we don't want the Smokester to go up in flames.

    Thanks guys for great suggestions.

    Fahrenheit sound promising as it was mentioned that smell like woods in the spring. That might be right up my alley :)
