Some of it is cultural, Latin men love cologne. My experience with caucasians is that the rural types haven't used it as much. But time to evolve, especially older guys whose ph levels change and get that old man smell.*

Thread:

Not done talking cologne: I actually am baffled as to why anyone DOESN'T wear cologne. We only have 5 senses. We deliberately and enthusiastically try to experience enjoyment from the other 4. Why is smell excluded? - By Brad August 10, 2026 at 12:07:10 PM
- My wife is very sensitive to odors and absolutely hates *any* cologne or perfume smell - By WestSideBlue August 10, 2026 at 01:29:21 PM
  - My wife is exactly the same - we say she has a "super sniffer". Very sensitive to smells.* - By wingedvictory August 10, 2026 at 02:07:44 PM
- It's like smoking or watching horse racing or boxing. Some people under 45 or so are into it, but it's the exception to the rule (m) - By buymybonerpills August 10, 2026 at 12:48:35 PM
  - Gen Z is driving a new cologne boom, believe it or not. Accounts for why there are so many fragrance influencers these days (mostly TikTok and YouTube)** - By Brad August 10, 2026 at 12:52:32 PM
- agree. i bought my first bottle last year and use it sporadically, but i have it for date nights and going out. i am very aware of how much I spray on and it is minimal -- just offering a hint of scent.** - By kal August 10, 2026 at 12:45:07 PM

- I wore cologne when I started dating my (now) wife. She told me she doesn’t like cologne so I stopped. You shouldn’t be baffled by this* - By MFlyer August 10, 2026 at 12:32:14 PM
  - She didn’t like your cologne * - By BBA August 10, 2026 at 12:33:54 PM
    - She didn’t like any cologne* - By MFlyer August 10, 2026 at 12:36:29 PM
      - Maybe, but you'd be amazed at how many different scents are out there. If she has a sense of smell, there are almost certainly colognes she'd enjoy* - By Brad August 10, 2026 at 12:49:44 PM
        
        I’m not opposed to revisiting it with her. Just hasn’t been something that seems to be missing. As long as I smell clean and look good she’s happy* - By MFlyer August 10, 2026 at 01:00:46 PM
  - She sounds like a blast.* - By MasterBates August 10, 2026 at 12:33:15 PM
    - She’s beautiful and incredible and made my life better. She is a blast* - By MFlyer August 10, 2026 at 12:35:32 PM

- I wore Joop in HS and college and thought it was so fancy. Loved that shit. YSL now. Well worth that expense. Bottle lasts a year * - By BBA August 10, 2026 at 12:27:40 PM

- At a bare minimum, if someone gets the slightest whiff of a scent coming from me I’d rather it be a smell I chose and not BO - By blueguy August 10, 2026 at 12:21:34 PM

  - If you are so clean, why do you need to shower every day?* - By MasterBates August 10, 2026 at 12:20:02 PM
- I can think of a few reasons… - By Craig August 10, 2026 at 12:15:40 PM
  - Based on your post, you need to purchase a bottle of Tom Ford Beau de Jour immediately. Your wife will be all over you. It is a clean, refined shaving cream-type smell. Also... - By Brad August 10, 2026 at 12:32:03 PM
    - Heh. Appreciate it, but my wife is already all over me. At my age, any more might actually kill me*** - By Craig August 10, 2026 at 12:42:22 PM
      - How do you keep it fresh? Drugs? Toys? New ideas from urban dictionary?* - By Rich August 10, 2026 at 01:01:59 PM
