I like this. Thank you.
The worst cologne you ever tried:
- Thread starter The Pontificator
- Start date

Grey Flannel. I've made some bad blind buys, but this was the worst, by far.
Within the last week, I bought this - based on hype, ratings, descriptions. I'm wondering if I got a bad batch (can't be counterfeit since I bought at Nordstrom's). It's the cheapest citrusy cologne I've ever used. It smells synthetic. The only part of it that is good smells like a cheap imitation of Issey Miyake Pour Homme. I can't figure because I got Armani Code at the same time and it's delightful/fantastic.
Glen Perris unpredictable adventure. Suppose to be a aventus clone so I was like eh 15 bucks let me try it to see if it smells similar. This stuff smells like I could get graffiti off with it. So synthetic it burns my nose to the point where it hurts and the scent won't get out.
Spazio Krizia, One ManShow The Golden Edition, Carbone de Balmain, Absynthe by C. Lacroix.
Yeah I smelled their whole line and it was pretty nasty. The only one I cared for was Pure Havane.
That's the one I have. I use it on frequent, but unusual, occasions.

Ok... I must know... What are frequent and unusual occasions?

Avon's Cordovan. At least it didn't last.
Seems all the scents I try in the stores has that sea breeze/sweet note to it and I don't like it. Last modern cologne I liked was Drakkar Noir, and it gets used sparingly.
Encre noir by Lalique. First impression was wet barn stall, house fire on dry down. A blind buy that made me wish I was noseblind
It really does smell poop.
Bvlgari Aqua. The only cologne that I couldn't stand and tried to rinse off.
I didn't like Curve as well.
Lastly, though I don't hate it, I don't really care much for Aqua Di Gio. I was deadset with getting 70th Saponificio Varesino but when I heard the scent is like ADG, and that it didn't have Tallow according to Stallion on YouTube; It changed my mind. From the top of my soap wishlist to maybe.

Bvlgari Aqua's pretty nauseating. Secretions Magnifiques by Etat Libre d'Orange is the worst for me so far. I can't say why because I'd be violating board etiquette.
Growing up in our house we had an old dusty bottle of Halston Z-14; to me a very dated fragrance, and I always associate that smell with that small bathroom in my boyhood house. I hear it has its fans though, in which case the world's your oyster since it can be found easily and cheaply at Marshall's.
Tobacco Vanille. Just tried it today and I couldn't wait to wash it off!
