Thread: Best & Worst & Why

What's the best and worst cologne you've tried and why? Much is due to opinion and taste but many things smell nice has anyone had a total shocker with colognes or aftershaves?

I recently got a few samples from a kind purveyor of shaving supplies.

Worst - acqua di parma essenza. STRONG !! Some scents you barely notice are there, this one assaults your senses with a cosh. I was walking faster and faster all day to try and outrun it, by mid afternoon I had a mild headache. Like a refined WD40 smell.

Best - TOBS Jermyn street on the other hand was like a secretly admired friend that always gives you a thrill to see again. Never overpowering, you wish they'd stay longer.
