Man Fashion: Nose Candy

It is a scientific fact that the sense of smell lingers for a long time in the mind of a person. Whether you believe or not, your friends and colleagues do associate you with the smell of your perfume or cologne, so it is essential to choose a fragrance that is totally you. Just like in selecting clothes from a boutique, you should make sure that your perfume reflects your own personal style and uniqueness.

Previously I shared with you my top 5 perfumes. In this post, I would like to share some essential on this nose candy.

Where should one apply fragrance?
The most important, in descending order, are rops of your forearms(in moving them, you create your scent space), neck, and one serious shot down your back inside your shirt.


Day versus Night: How much scent?
Your use for the office should always be lighter; evening, you can get louder. Humidity represses scent, but don't overcompensate, because humidity makes people less tolerant of odors too.


Should age affect scent choices?
There are scents appropriate for different ages. Teens can wear ckIN2U with great success, Juicy Couture Dirty English works better for 20s.


How does one know how a scent will smell on him?
Only when you wear it the first day will you really know what it smells like on you (by others' reaction) but only on day 2 will you know whether your initial reading was right or wrong. One must frequently take a fragrance out for a few spins.

How long and where should you keep fragrances?
Scents definitely have a shelf life (My bottles are still not expire! :P) and it'll be obvious what's still good and what has turned. So if you buy something you really love, there's only one place to store it: the fridge. So next time, remember to return back immediately after apply.

Man Designer Fashion Accessories Essentials

When we talk about Man Designer Fashion Accessories, items that come to my mind are fashion designer tie, fashion designer sunglasses, fashion designer watch, handkerchief, designer shoes, fashion designer wallets, sandals, cellphone, mp3 etc. There are plenty of brands from Man Fashion Designers out there. You can find some designer fashion accessories are expensive and some are affordable. More importantly, what are the most essentials a man should look out for when come to designer fashion accessories.


Designer Fashion Essential 1 - Never Substitute Quantity for Quality
Buying in bulk can leave you looking as if you have a lots of cheap pieces at your wardrobe. But when come to man designer fashion, it is the quality that count. Hence, choose your designer fashion accessories wisely, they are your assets in your future.


Designer Fashion Essential 2 - Organize Your Wardrobe
Trousers, suits at one side, and fashion accessories at the other side etc. It will make finding the correct combination so much easier.


Designer Fashion Essential 3 - Always Feel Confident in What You Wear
As I always said, if you leave your house with second thoughts on what are you wearing on that day, it is most probably you got the wrong combination.


Designer Fashion Essential 4 - Do the "Blink" Test
Stand in fornt of a full length mirror, Look at yourself quickly and see what image you have given to yourself. Do all of these fashion accessories work together with your clothes? Likewise, always test this out when you decide to buy something at the outlets. I always think women are more smarter than men when come to this.


Designer Fashion Essential 5 - Ensure Your Fashion Designer Accessories are appropriate to the occasion
Most of the time we do mess the accessories and the locations or occasion up. So if possible, check with the organizers before you attend any functions or party.


Designer Fashion Essential 6 - Don't leave home without a Handkerchief
I am sure most of the younger don't has this habit. As everyone is now more and more aware and concern about environment around us. It is always a good practice to carry handkerchief rather than paper tissues, you play your part and the rest will take care of it.

Lastly, you can always add more colours and designs to all your accessories, so you will not out of fashion and colour to match, be it formal or casual wear.

Man Fashion: It's All About Smell

I have received some inquiry from readers on Men Perfume and Cologne lately. Let me recall back that, it has been a while I have not look at this! It does not mean I don't need this, but that I still left with few bottles of my favorite cologne in my wardrobe, which I bought from discount fragrance stores previously.

So today, let me bring you to the world of men perfume and cologne, which I listed down my top 5 selection of colognes and perfumes.

1. Boss Selection Hugo Boss For Men

Hugo is my first choice selection of perfume if you are afford with the price. The bottle design of this Hugo Boss is rather simple but classy (suit major men’s taste). What makes it special is the existence of a small ‘belt’ connecting the lid to the bottle. Thus, I never have to worry to lose the lid in any circumstances.

The scent is strong but not over-powering that you will actually feel that it smells ‘man’. It makes you feel more ‘man’, in turn becomes sexy and attractive.

2. MONT BLANC STARWALKER Cologne

Why I choose Mont Blanc StarWalker Cologne? I like the "taste" of the perfume, it's the light and clean scent attracts my soul. It's simple design also make it easy to put in a luggage if you are prepare for outstation trip.

Mont Blanc is consider a new comer when come to men perfume or cologne products, so you can expect slightly cheaper price than other branded perfume.

If I would put a word to this all these, "Comfort" is the word that I find most suitable to express the whole theme and feeling with this cologne.

3. R.S.V.P by Kenneth Cole for men
Another light and clear scent selection. With fresh bursts of lavender and grapefruit, this scent lingers with a trial of calming sandalwood and soft cashmere, which create a fresh fragrance experience for those who use this.

4. Prada Infusion d'Homme

Introduced in 2008, this is male companion of the last year's edition for women Prada Infusion d'Iris, which was also inspired by this version, was created in cooperation with perfumer of the house of Givaudan - Daniela Andrier.


The perfume Infusion d'Homme includes notes of neroli from Tunisia, iris palida, vetiver, cedar, incense and benzoin.

This men perfume is perfect for a day when you want only a hint of fragrance on your skin or when you don’t want others to be aware of your perfume (Infusion d’Homme lasts over 10 hours on skin but stays close to the body).

Infusion d’Homme would be great to wear on a long-haul flight: you’ll smell clean and “freshly showered” but your perfume will not be intrusive.

5. Ferrari Light Essence

Another fresh and clean selection here. Being introduced in 2007. This fragrance features orange blossom, green apple, freesia, teak wood and lemon.
