Sometimes colognes smell really nice, sometimes you can pick out the base notes and smell that it is unique. But sometimes they just smell nondescript and cologney.
Sometimes I read the scent notes on a cologne and think I'm really going to like it. This rarely ends up being true. Most of the time, I'm severely disappointed with something that just smells cologney. I obviously have no idea how scent notes interact and what the resulting scent will be once mixed.
So what notes or combination thereof are what gives a scent that generic, offputting, cologney vibe?
