Default I smell boredom

ok so im bored and i notice i have like half a million aftershaves and cologne i never use so i got bored and started smelling some and here are the results

1. Classic match - A pleasent smell that is hard to describe but i can sum it up with one word..... goodsmellingstuff

Rating: 9/10 im guessing id use this for a special event or somthing

2. Escape - First of all its in a pretty little box, but the bottle is pretty small but would still last me like 20 years because of the lack of use of all my cologne... anyways this is by far the most expencive and best smelling stuff ive ever had. I can sum the smell up with the following "summer breeze"

Rating: 10/10 This stuff smells so good its only to be used on a super special event like... oh i don't know, the second coming of Jesus.

3. Old Spice Lime - At first i thought ewww what a smell... but i guess thats because its been closed for quite some time and the smell builds up unbelievely. Anyways this is a classic smell that im sure many people have smelled before, i know i have.

10/10 classic, putting this on for a random outting would do, its noting too special, but not somthing id waste on a normal day

4. Aqua Velva Ice Sport - Ok well this is one of the only ones ive ever actualy worn, its in a little bottle you could crush in your hand (much like the old spice one) and ive had it for over 3 years... how does it smell?, well not bad, but not something id want to be stuck smelling like for too long

rating: 7/10 its ok, i guess since is aftershave it does not have to smell like heaven but oh well....

5. Skin Bracer Original - Ok this is the second one ive worn out of all of them... i don't know why, i just got bored and wanted to see if that scene from home alone was true... it was... This stuff smells ok, once again its aftershave so it does not have to smell too good.

Rating: 8/10 Smell ok for an aftershave, but not something id wear to say.... the second coming of Jesus

6. Aqua Velva Ice Blue - Ok i know ive smelled something like this before, but i can not recall where... so i can not sum it up but ill just say this, if you want to fake some tears just take a big old woof of this stuff.. man

Rating: 6/10 I guess it would be ok in small amounts, but using this in big numbers could have been used as an ancient chinese torture...

7. Nautica Competition - Ok from the moment i read what this was i never expected it to smell like flowers... the first words i saw were " Eau de toilette spray"... ya toilet water, that will go over really well with the ladies.... NOT. Ok so its some sort of sport spray im guessing, so between sweat and this i guess you would rather smell like this.

Rating: 5/10 Ok so it does not smell bad... just weird

8. Old Spice Original - Ok for those of you who like to smell like your grandmothers spice rack this is the aftershave for you... for sane people like me not so much

Rating 5/10 My mother says it smells good.. so maybe in 20 or 30 years ill pick it up and say "woah baby i can't belive i never used this...".. untill then have fun sitting in a box on the back of my dresser


Ok thats finaly it, no more... i know what you may be thinking, why do i have so much cologne... well its simple, people keep buying it, and i keep having a lack of special events to wear them to...

The End.

Ugh, same. Colognes and aftershave make me want to hurl, and I can always tell when someone's wearing them. I can't stand when someone wears so much, they leave the smell behind on your furniture -_-
Though, to be honest, it's probably more of a natural aversion than the smell itself, as a LOT of scents that wouldn't make other people sick affect me.

As for the gifting, I imagine it's like giving ties to men who rarely if ever wear them, leading to an overabundance. One of my friends gets these cheap sampler aftershave+deodorant+cologne packs from his siblings, and he as a shelve absolutely filled with both them and the ones he buys himself. Eventually, he's going to be able to open a store and vend them o_O

Toilette doesn't neccesarily mean toilet. Google translator says it does, but I don't think so.

Not exactly sure what it means, but I know that it has more definitions than just "toilet water." Anyone that speaks French want to help me?

I don't get it :/ I could think of better things with my boredom to do... like writing hate letters to A.Net (j/k). Or maybe just sitting back with a nice glass of ice tea on the porch talking to a very pretty girl, discussing philosophy and lyric.
