The metro sexual male of the modern civilized world understands that it is important to smell good when you are in a public place or with your friends and loved ones.
Here are a few simple tricks you can use to bring your "smelling good" up to the next level ….
Cologne* Rotation
Always have a few different colognes, I recommend at least 2-3 which you can often rotate. This will ensure you do not smell monotonous and always smell fresh and different. Predictable is boring .When you smell different just about each day, you will be displaying that you are a spontaneous person. as well as a person with style, and with the right choice of cologne. a person with class too. This is exactly what any **real player should want the ladies to think of them.
*Cologne & Pheromones
*Never apply cologne to your clothes, the smell will fade away in less than a few hours, plus your clothing does not contain natural pheromones like your body does. so spraying your shirt would not be produce the full effect of the cologne. When you spray cologne on your body in the right spots, pheromones mix together with the cologne to "create" an original smell. YOUR original smell. If you have ever wondered why the same brand of cologne smells different depending on who is wearing it, now you know. it is because each person's body produces slightly different pheromones, and when mixed with cologne produces their own unique "version" of the cologne.
*The "Hot" Spots
The best spots to apply cologne are the areas of your body that produce the most **body heat. Body heat "activates" the cologne, increasing the strength of the smell and making it last as long as possible. while colder areas of your body tend to dull the smell and make it disappear more rapidly. To achieve maximum results when wearing cologne, apply it to the following body parts: Wrists, neck, arm pits, and behind the ears. When using a cologne spray, do NOT spray behind your ears, spray it onto your hands and wipe it on. the last thing you want is to smell like you took a bath in your cologne. Another added bonus of putting cologne behind your ears is the fact that when you are in a club with loud music people tend to talk into your ear so you can hear them. and what they will get is a nice gentle whiff of your scent.
*Choosing The Right Cologne
When shopping for a new cologne, **never go by what smells good. you don't want a cologne that JUST smells good. you want a cologne that will trigger good memories. When a humans smells a scent that triggers an old, happy memory. they become instantly attracted to whatever is producing the scent.The trick to selecting a cologne that does this effectively is to test them on yourself. if it triggers any type of good memory in your mind, then it should have a similar effect on most of the people you come into contact with. To make your life a bit easier I have compiled a list of cologne that are the absolute BEST at doing this. so you don't even need to go "smell testing"
*Cheap VS Expensive
Don't be fooled by brands like Calvin Klien and Polo Sport. If you wear any of these "regular brands" you will not be **ANY better than the last guy who decided that decent cologne was not worth the investment, plus most of the cheaper brands smell pretty bad. the last thing you want to do is turn people off simply because your cologne gave them a headache! Now you might automatically say "I can't afford that!" when you hear a name like Armani or Versace. but I can assure you that their cologne is quite cheap compared to most of their other products, and spending 1300/- on a REALLY good bottle of cologne instead of wasting 1000/- on a cheap bottle is definitely worth it when people constantly tell you how good you smell .Most of the ones listed below are between 1500 – 3000 /- a bottle which is usually 75 to 100 ml .
*So What's Best?
Here are some of my favorite colognes . Most of these are now available in India at lifestyle stores and malls . **Always insist on the Original Guarantee card . I am at present using or have used in past all of these fragrances and can tell you from first hand experience that you will never find anything better ( In case you do let me know and I will add them to my collection) . You can select ANY from the ones listed below and make up the perfect seven-day rotation…
