Acqua di Gio comes in a spray. After a fresh shave, just brace yourself, spray, then go out and get laid.

Lacoste, Perry Ellis, Swiss Army

The Swiss Army has received the most compliments.

I might give that a shot. Speaking with some lady friends of mine, they highly recommended not wearing all the same stuff - Body Wash, Deodorant, Cologne Spray, and Shave Balm.

They specifically said that designer deodorants really aren't that good - so she recommended a non-scented deodorant, then just use the Ax Body Wash that I already have and the Acqua Di Gio Cologne Spray.
I tried the deodorant and it did not work very well for me. I just use the cologne spray and the aftershave balm. I tried the shaving cream, shampoo, and deodorant and those were all ok but not great.

I've never used an after shave balm though, ever. I presume just do what Mccully Culkin did in Home Alone - drop some on your hands, then pat where you shaved?
The Acqua Balm is basically just a light lotion that smells awesome. I have worn it without the cologne and still received compliments.

Ah okay, thanks!

Sorry, I'm not too familiar with all the extras!

Truth be told, I don't think anything smells better than the natural odor from my armpits. That's my natural cologne.

While aqua di gio has a very good fragrance, it is very common, which makes it a turn off for some chicks.

I am currently testing out the original dolce & gabana cologne and deodorant. The smell isn't good as aqua (i havent found any that I like more than aqua), the fragrance is a little more mature, but the deodorant needs to be applied more than once a day!!

A couple dark horses I like are Armani Black Code and a cologne I had a while ago called Raw Vanilla or something like that. Not sure if they make it anymore but I loved that scent.
