Real Women Share Fragrant Scents They Wished Men Smelled Like

Women go crazy for the smell of a beautifully scented man. But just what mysterious alchemy makes the ultimate sexy male scent? I happen to live and work with a lot of women and gathered anecdotal data on this subject. Cologne companies probably have the largest database of consumer scent preferences in the world. But I have my contact list which is just as concise. The bottom line with fragrance is that it is designed to attract a mate. And in order to do that, a man needs to prove that he is masculine, powerful, and clean just by scent alone. The following scents vary from sweet to bitter and from weak to strong. Compare and contrast and see where you fall on the smell-o-meter. Let's determine what truly is the best aphrodisiac.

Who knew this info could be so useful. Certainly not us! But let's enjoy this information, it may just come in handy.

Smelling like 'Hard Work' could literally mean anything. My colleague says "it's the opposite of Axe Body Spray. "They worked hard to gain this scent." So...sweat?
