Thread: Any info on this cologne and thoughts?

I saw this in a local drug store and was wondering if any body had used it.

I've never seen that brand before, but then again you guys in the States get many products in drugstores that aren't found here so it's not surprising. If its cheap (under $10) I say buy it - what do you have to lose?

Sometimes when I find scented products in shops (keep this on the down low guys! lol) I'll pop the lid off when no one is looking and have a sniff. That's usually enough to tell me if it warrants a purchase.

Ditto what Ryan said, pull the cap and take a whiff and you'll have your answer. You'll be surprised how a scent can grow on you (Tabac anyone) I purchased an aftershave online awhile back and wasn't impressed at first, but the wife loves it, so it gets used regularly.

Back in the day, Israeli housewives used to pop-off the lids on dairy products, to smell for freshness (why believe a printed "sell-by" date on the container, when you can sniff it and know for sure!) Of course, watching it happen caused me to shy-away from anything that was rejected... even if it was still before the expiration date; I mean, "breathe in" is immediately followed by "breathe out", and who knew what was going on in her nose/sinuses? Then came the 1990s, with hermetic seals underneath the lids, and that was that.

Buy it, looks about 5 bucks worth. If you don't like it on yourself then use it on the dog :<0)

And thank goodness! Couldn't have come soon enough if you ask me!

I'm picking up a bottle tomorrow

Make sure the cap is sealed :<0)

Gentlemen,
There is a legend behind Hoyt's. Google it. The fragrance is pleasant and light. Hoyt is clean and refreshing, but the fragrance lasts only a short time.

Some cool stuff on Hoyts:
