Men with great taste, what's your favorite cologne?

Along with watches and suits, one of my other favorite luxury items is cologne. Good taste is very common on this forum so the responses should be interesting and we might pick up something along the way. That being said- Gents, what is your favorite cologne? Doesn't have to be just one....

I don't wear cologne much except for special occasions, but when I do I wear my favorite which is Creed, Himalaya. I don't think I'd wear anything other than Creed... I love their line and general quality. It doesn't get stale when kept for long periods of time. I do miss the 80s and 90s where wearing cologne more often was acceptable... especially on the East Coast. Today... wearing cologne in the work place is considered poisonous to those allergic to perfumes.

I'll second that...Creed Aventus. The only scent that complete strangers routinely ask me what I'm wearing because it smells amazing.

Haha... are you serious? Can one get really lucky wearing it? Or do the girls run away as fast as they can?

Watches and suits are great but never a cologne. I live in a world where men should smell like men. Don't get me wrong getting dressed is the best but if I went to work in a suit my friends would ask me who funeral did I go to.

What's cologne? Good old fashion pheromones have never steered me wrong!
