Let's talk Cologne

Zegna Energy looks amazing, great reviews. Acqua di Parma looks amazing too. There are some good deals on Amazon but I wonder how much the import duties are on colognes.

I went into a store and sprayed Tommy on my arm but the scent had gone off, it smelt so bad. I am sure some of these colognes sit in stores for years, sometimes with direct sunlight.

Was at Gateway when the store klerk sprayed me Acqua. Fell in love immediately and so did the SO.

Vowed to get one when I got back to Jozi. Will look around when not busy.
 
Ascot looks good, thanks.

I wonder if Dischem sells Acqua di Parma. I kind of like the idea of getting cologne at a 40% discounted rate using eBucks

Evaluating scents, you're doing it wrong :p

Haha, yeah you are right. I don't think I have ever done a blind buy for a cologne. I like to always try it a couple times on my skin first. Very often I like the opening and middle of a cologne but not the dry down.

That's the only way to do it, blind buying is asking for trouble unless it's a give away price but even then a 100ml bottle of toilet water for R350 is pricey..

No - "looks" is the wrong verb, should be "smells".
 
I think it smells good and my girlfriend loves it on me. Each to their own I guess
 
Think I'm getting names mixed up - the one I remember smelling like insecticide is Zero Plus (little red bottle I got free from Takealot).

It is phenomenally bad.
 
Does anyone know where I can get CK Summer One? Edgars, Truworths etc, do not have it. I don't know why, its a very good unisex fragrance.

On that note, does anyone know of other good unisex fragrances?
