    I like my man wearing NO cologne at all. I think the natural, musky scent of a man (I’m not talking unwashed here) is the most sexy and alluring. I have smelt Old Spice on other guys and it does smell kinda nice, but I prefer no cologne at all on my man. It’s often been my experience that lots of men don’t like wearing colognes or perfumes because they think it’s unmasculine, and the guys who do wear cologne tend to overdo it and stink the place out. I think the most attractive smell on a man is the lingering, subtle scent of a fresh soap wash. It is so lovely to kiss a man straight after he has had a shower and he’s so zingy and clean. There’s nothing like it. This idea that perfume or cologne is indispensable to sex appeal and romantic situations is total rubbish. It’s simply a marketing line fed to you by cosmetics companies to get you to pay out a fortune for their horrendously overpriced products. Don’t fall for it. People have been falling in love and making love for thousands of years, with or without wearing perfumes. I think scenting the skin is a very European/American practise anyway. The fact is, a lot of Asians like Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, etc, have very sparse apocrine glands (major sweat glands under the arms and in the genital area). Many have no apocrine glands at all, consequently they have little or no body odour in these places. Due to this natural odourlessness, many Asians find the practise of wearing perfume or cologne absolutely shocking. Marilyn Monroe’s famous remark that Chanel No.5 was the only thing she wore to bed, offended and horrified many Japanese because she was suggesting that perfume was something you wore on your person. In Asiatic races this is simply not done at all, with Asians prefering to scent rooms with incense rather than the European practise of scenting bodies. The Japanese go out of their way to avoid wearing commercial perfumes and fragrances, as these are considered FAR too strong to be worn. To perfume the body is completely alien to the Japanese, in fact they consider it ‘bodily-pollution’. I sometimes wish people in the West would follow this approach and stop wasting time and money on these trivial material things.
