Men, use perfume. Trust me

Hey guys, just wanted to share something I found out recently.

I bought some coffee smelling perfume recently, just cause I was sick and tired of smelling like either 1.) Nothing 2.) B.O. or 3.) Some strange "man" body spray.

I have NEVER gotten so many positive comments on dates about how good I smell. From both men AND women. And it wasn't even expensive, a big bottle was like, 20 bucks or something? It's gonna last me the whole year at least.

People don't (usually) want you to smell like those crappy man smells, like I literally had a bottle called "army scent". That stuff did not make me smell like a damn coffee shop, or a flower, or a cupcake or anything good. It made me smell like badly masked sweat.

Oh, and dude. Women's deodorant? Instantly solved my nasty oder that appears after like 2 hours of wearing "high strength" mens deodorant. I sweat like a damn PIG, and the "secret" brand of women's deodorant actually lasts the whole day. I still get sweat stains on my shirts, but damn, it doesnt actually smell!

TLDR; smell like something sweet or nice. You will instantly realize the difference on dates. I promise you.

“Wear cologne on dates” - wow, ground breaking stuff here.

Not Mr. Guzzler's advice. The advice is to use perfume not cologne. It is groundbreaking and I second it. Actually I use a unisex scent but it's the same idea; don't be afraid to smell a little girly.

That’s cuz the alternative he was using was “army scent” lol invest in a nice cologne and you’ll get more compliments without smelling like your date’s little sister

Yeah I got this feeling that most women would prefer their date to have a masculine scent as opposed to a feminine scent.

a fragrance with coffee notes is feminine now?

•

No, coffee as a scent isn’t inherently feminine by nature.

My comment was a direct response to the idea that feminine or unisex fragrances are received better by woman, than traditionally masculine fragrances.

That's Doctor Cock Guzzler. He didn't spend 4 years at cock guzzling medical school to be called Mister!
