Re: Cologne, Aftershave, Eau de Toilette, Eau de Parfum, etc.
I can be very sensitive to smells, not allergic, but just over-sensitive to the point of being made nauseous, so I like scents to be mild.
For showering I use a cedarwood bodywash and a tea tree oil shampoo. They help wash the smell of the pool's chlorine out of my skin and hair, but don't leave much of a lingering scent themselves.
My shave soap has a light rose & aloe scent (and aloe in the soap).
Post shave creme is a non-fragrance creme from Every Man Jack that I LOVE. It leaves no sticky or greasy feel on the skin. It absorbs into the skin very quickly. (I also hate the feel of product on my skin. Yes, I'm loads of fun )
I don't usually wear cologne unless I'm getting "dressed", then I have a Ferragamo cologne that my wife likes. I also like the soapy-citrus of CK One, but haven't worn that for a good number of years.
One of the WORST, most all-pervasive smells for me is fabric softener. When someone over-softens their clothes the smell can literally FILL the room.
