The time has passed for nice things. Cuff links, colognes, shoe polish. Well at least for most of us it has. What ever happened to gentlemen...
Today I am going to post about something that I have tried to find but have failed. What ever happened to people writing a review about a cologne? It's difficult but not impossible. It's hard to decide which cologne to buy when they are all hidden behind a glass case and without reviews they are virtually impossible to decide on. So today I am going to give six colognes that are, in my opinion, great.

The first is Black by Stetson. It is sweet, subtle, and also has just enough of a dark side to be seductive. I got it as a gift and have bought it again and I must say that the price is definitely a must. (three bucks at Walmart, hurry before it's gone.)

The second is Cuban Blue. That link sends you to a four pack, which I purchased. The orange and red are OK, maybe even great good, but I think Blue is much better. The Gold is just plain awful, like over scented baby wipes.
As for blue the scent is foreign, spicy, a slight pine scent, and says attractive but not on the prowl.

The third is Essential by Lacoste. It's fun and spicy. It's more of a friends cologne, rather than a lover.

Now I will get to colognes that, in my opinion, are irresistible.

The fourth is Soul by Curve. Even though it looks and seems, and even kind of smells, like perfume, it's not. I really enjoy the smell. It's sweet, but not so much that it's too strong. Beware though, it smells very different after it has evaporated so don't judge it out of the bottle.

The fifth is Hugo Boss by Hugo. It's sweet and also has a tinge of old time aftershave.

The sixth and final cologne is my personal favorite. Every person who has smelled it has said the same, I don't know what it is about it, but it has something for everyone. It is Axelab by Axe. Now I know what you're thinking and no it does not come in a can, it is much better than the cheap aerosol stuff. The only problem with this cologne is that I can't find it at any local stores, only on line. It is sweet, seductive, spicy, pretty much everything. I recommend it to everyone. I recommend it for me. *Christmas present* *cough cough*
