My hubby says he needs a new cologne for Christmas, one that I choose that will make me go crazy for him. LOL! Easier said than done. Any of you ladies have a favorite maybe your man wears that you just LOVE, that will help me narrow things down and save some time?? He has some Burberry, BOSS by Hugo Boss, and Calvin Klein MAN. Other than that just some Axe products. The only cologne I ever remember loving was CHROME, but that's what my Dad wears so I can't get him that. Any help is much appreciated!!

Eternity for Men....absolutely wonderful. I used to work in a little country store and my co-workers could not believe it when I could say, without looking up, someone just came in wearing Eternity...and would be right.

For whatever reason, Drakkar Noir has always made me weak-kneed. It's been our tradition for years that my husband gets a new bottle in his stocking every Christmas. Yum-o!!

My husband used to wear Paul Sebastian and I LOVED it. More recently, we bought him Black Code and it, too, made me want to get close. I want to go out and smell some of the other suggestions... maybe it's time to try something new. :)

Old spice or curve for men.. oh geez I love those!!! I don't like axe, it's too overbearing and too me insinuates a bit of immaturity just because what the commercials tend to show. I LOVE nivea for men, body wash. I'd follow that guy smelling him lol.

Make sure he rubs it in after he sprays it on.. I've noticed my perfume will have an alcohol smell until I rub it and then it's gone and smells awesome... weird lol.

I think most mens cologne smell the same and are very unappealing, but Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab has the most amazing perfumed oils I have ever experienced (for men and women) and doesn't have the sharp alcohol smell of most colognes. If my husband wears Snake Charmer, I absolutely want to devour him!

I love Aqua Di Gio and Ralph Lauren Polo Black. The second is my fav. A really neat thing that Sephora has is a "sample" pack that lets you test out 8 or so scents. Plus it comes with a gift certificate for a full size bottle of the one you like best. Then you can see which one REALLY makes you go GAGA!

Armani code black. Very subtle and not overpowering. Love it. The other one I like is abercrombie and fitche's Woods, even though I despise that store. I think they disconinued it bit may have recently relaunched it.

answers from Portland on

Whatever scent your hubby ends up wearing, I hope he will keep in mind that there are toxic ingredients in most scents that can seriously affect the health of those of us who have chemical sensitivities.

If he wears only enough for those within a couple of feet (in his "intimate" zone), he will be exercising good etiquette. If people 5 feet away can smell him, there's a problem. I've actually had to leave restaurant meals, movie theaters, and numerous public places because of strongly-perfumed people.

A poll a few years ago revealed that at least one out of 20 respondents reported feeling sick when exposed to scented products. Everything from asthma to headaches, nausea, confusion, dizziness and fainting, sore throat, sleep disturbances. I hope scent-wearers will be aware of this growing problem.

Bath and Body works; not just for women. This store has incredible deals all of the time. Their B Bigelow collection is a men's line and I've got my man every flavor. They are all great. You cannot go wrong. Plus if you buy one thing you can usually get two more for free or half price.
It's nice for the girls too. Buy him body wash or shave cream and cologne and some body spray for yourself. (giggle)
