Cologne?

What /u/Metal_Marcus said: It's all about preference. And different scents react differently with different body chemestries. You will have to experiment with different scents and how they work on you.

Also: It's not cheap. Any cologne that you can afford a bottle that lasts nine years is probably a cheap knock off.

Classic scents are Old Spice, English Leather, and Polo. I'm told that for some women, Drakkar Noir is catnip.

Buy no more than an ounce at a time until you find something that works for you, and do NOT hesitate to give away anything the doesn't. Because stank is . . . well, stank.

I recommend you hit up the Fragrance counter at a major department store such as Macy's, Dillards or Nordstom. Not only will you get professional assistance, but you will get an opportunity to interact with attractive women and flirt. Remember, cologne smells different after a couple minutes after you apply it to your skin. In the end, it is really up to you, but second opinions are necessary.

OK. Know any attractive females? Invite them to go cologne shopping with you. Tell them you will get them coffee afterwards, you just want a female's opinion on what scents smell good on you. Which is why you want cologne, to smell good for them hotties. Flirt with said attractive female, easy escalation (she's going to touch you and flirt back if she thinks you smell good). Thas it. You now have cologne that works for you. Additionally if she is attracted enough you could bang her for bonus points.

It's really all about preference. Go out and actually find and test out a scent, because if you like it, you'll stick with it for a long time. For me, Cool Water Cologne is my go-to

I use essential oils on acupuncture points to boost yang.

You can also get animal musk at sporting good stores. Great source of pheremones.

I usually just do a quick spray of old spice stuff if I'm going out. I've never really had expensive cologne but I mean to try it.

I've have women completely stop me to comment on Polo Red.

I do not think it is necessary.
I wash myself decently daily and use my old spice deostick.
I keep my beard and hair well kept and combed and brush my teeth daily.
All other 'beauty products' I do not regard as manly.
