Scent being strongly associated with memory gives cologne a few points back. Like if there is a hot female with daddy issues and you know what kind of cologne her father wore/wears. Then you're pretty much in.

But other than that, natural is the way to go.

I am not really a fan of cologne. I don't mind of the lady wears a light body spray.. bath and body type, but nothing over powering. I had an ex gf how used to wear a Sarah Jessica Parker perfume, and i swear it smelled like men's cologne, I hated it, she loved it, I went as far as to throw it out, I could not stand it.

It probably was. I'm fairly sure she has a penis.

Couldn't you say that about basically any business?

yankee candles are 20-25 dollars for a large candle that'll burn for 90 hours. not a horrible price, IMO. and again, they are STRONGLY scented, so i only keep mine lit for 5 minutes or so. one should last for a whole season.

The average person can't make a leather bag for shit.
The average person can certainly make a batch of candles a year. (I mean shit, the answer is YES, that is any business- but for fucks sake I'm not buying a 30 dollar candle

)

lol

I'm not sure I could make a top quality candle.

I remember in like grade 4 or 5 we made candles, old school style, by dipping a string into a pot of hot wax, removing it, letting it cool, and repeating.

It took forever and the whole time I'm telling my friends this is stupid we should just use a mould, no fucking moron from back in the day would do this, no one in their right mind to do this, the teachers are doing this to fuck with us I swear to god.

(minus the swearing)

we have these things called pheromones in our sweat. they are what we like to call a secondary sex characteristic. coincidentally, they help you quite a bit on your quest to get laid.

I don't really see hookers caring about your pheromones.

That said, it's pretty simple, don't wear bullshit like Axe, and know that a spray or so is enough. BO and cologne smells worse than BO alone, and smelling like a whole bottle of perfume/cologne from 5 feet away is fucking disgusting. Oh, and wash your ass. The end.

You melt wax, you add the scent you like. You grease up a mold, you pour it in. OR- you can just pour it in a jar!
