So growing up, I’m sure I’m not unlike most folks here where the first colognes you used were whatever your dad had….. and I’m old enough to be older than Axe spray. - I don’t think we even had an equivalent back in the 80’s.
Then it got to the point where your mom bought you your own - so I do remember Brut being in the mix - possibly Aspen as well.
But I’m wondering what everyone’s first Cologne that they used their own money to get- mine was Drakkar Noir……I still have a bottle now - but I’m sure back then - I must have worn it so the next block one could smell me .
The other one I had - though this was a gift was Ralph Lauren Polo (the original Green). It would have been out of my budget - but it was Christmas time and I remember going on a first date with a girl from the upper crust (we lived in a small town, more cows than people, the crust was thin - but she was the daughter of one of the town doctors.
I wanted to impress her so I had bought her a Christmas present - a sweater (I don’t know why - it was a first date - I was a teenage dude). We were at the movies at the mall. She was surprised - but excused herself to go put the sweater on - and she she came back - she has a wrapped bottle of Polo for me. I guess I was the winner there - or maybe she was telling me I stunk.
