    Re: Cologne, Aftershave, Eau de Toilette, Eau de Parfum, etc.

    I shower with Irish Spring soft soap and use Jovan's Ginsing as a colone. I am very aware that body chemistry affects scented products and this is the best match for me.

    My wife does Mary Kay and for the past many years I've worn Velocity almost exclusively. Good clean scent without being overpowering. The ladies seem to like it too

    I'm very sensitive to most petro-chemicals. I have found a few antiperspirants that don't break me out and a few body washes that I can tolerate but mostly what you smell is a clean me...nothing extra.

    Rondo, do you have a Vitamin Cottage or Whole Foods store nearby? Probably any health food store would carry the asian style deordant stones. It is a product made from various salts that when applied to underarms prevents bacteria growth, the thing that causes odor. I just bought a new one, brand = Lafes Natural and Organic deodorant stone. It claims to be hypoallergenic. Www.Lafes.com The upper case letters are only there because my dumb smart phone insists on putting them there.

    I go as scent free as possible when I'm in the woods. There are lots of good smells that I don't want to miss there. Also, use scent free, scent eliminating products when hunting. OTOH, for daily stuff around town and at work I have scented oil that I've been working on with my herbalist. We have been developing an earthy blend of sage, amber, patchouli, and oak moss, among some additional scent notes. It's almost at the point of finished product for my personal taste. I am a firm believer in moderation as I have my own allergies and respect other's sensitivity.
