    The cologne they make there is 4711. Pretty bad arse stuff if you ask me. Oh yeah Manny, how are the wife and kids?

    Right now I've been using

    Burberry-yellowish color.. my girl loves it.. almost has a fruit smell to it

    Aqua di Gio- great stuff but very strong go easy on it

    lacoste- probably one of my favorites

    Versaci Dreamers- the girls really seem to love this one

    ralph lauren romance(for men)- burberry barely beat this one out.

    It's not fancy like some of the things y'all are throwing out there, but I've been wearing Nautica since about 7th grade.

    It's not overpowering, but you can definitely tell it's there. I get so many compliments on it, and have been for quite some time.

    I usually just spray on my neck and wrists, and a couple on the shirt.

    All these colognes bring back memories when I use to work at Duty Free many years ago...I think I accumulated more than 40 bottles and I still have antiquated bottles of the stuff...green jeans, blue jeans, Tsar, horizon, etc....

    Gravity is the best. Do they still make that? Aspen is okay too. Preffered Stock was all the rage back in high school, but I never cared for it too much.

    I have received enough cologne from christmas gifts to last me the rest of my life.

    I used a bottle of Acqua Di Gio, but thought it was average. Nothing bad, but nothing great.

    I get the feeling this thread isn't about Manny anymore. Poor guy is left holding the empty cologne bottle.

    I can say that lately I bought a bottle of Intrigue because it wasn't too pricy and I thought it smelled alright. I can't believe the reactions I'm getting from chicks, though--they LOVE the stuff.

    It's not Zegna, it's "Essenza di Zegna".

    Gucci - Envy - for the wintertime and fall

    Dior - Higher - ideal for summer and during work

    Gucci - Rush - spring, fall, work

    Dior - Eau Sauvage, heavy stuff - defintely a leather/winter scent

    Hugo - Baldessarini - fall, winter

    Thierry Mugler - Cologne, all day, work, summer

    and the king of all:

    Creed - bois du portugal - ask Sinatra

    People still wear cologne after high school?

    Well I can't talk... I was the only dumbass that bought Michael Jordan's cologne when it first came out in 1996 b/c I was THAT much of a diehard sports nut.

    Go ahead... Pile on. :(
