I have been seriously thinking about something for special occasions. Should those ever arise.

The converse is also also true: the special occasions will arise after you find a fragrance that works well with your body chemistry. One way to tell that a scent is right for you is if you can't smell it on yourself after 20 minutes. Others will, though, and will flock to you like iron filings to a magnet.

Any recommendations as far as brands and whatnot? If I do this I'll be going boldly where I haven't gone before.

Honestly, find your nearest Sephora. They have a great selection of men's fragrance that you can test plus they can make samples for you to take home and try for a bit longer before shelling out the money.

That's good advice. Don't just try something in the shop and buy immediately. It's a good idea to get some samples to try over a few days, and if you can smell a fragrance on yourself, it is not for you.

I've been using Issey Miyake Pour Homme since it came out and still get complimented. When it is on me, my nose doesn't detect it at all.

Is the zed button contrastingly huge?

i think its an aiming izsue. the s is directly beneathtbe z and i strike by falling short in my aim.

but im alzo always hiiting the b instead of the h, and so im afraid my model doez not explain all the data.

it appears to an elevation problem in my aim, as opposed to windage.

Stick around for another 828 posts and this could be yours.

Take my advice, don't listen to me.

I typically use a body wash with some scent. Would I have to make adjustments based on body wash versus regular soap?

Yes, definitely, because you should never, ever, mix fragrances. Once you've chosen a signature fragrance, either get a body wash, soap, and deodorant from the same range, or get totally unscented ones. If you don't, there will be a horrible clash of scents and you may frighten the horses.
