I never was a fan of things that were scented.  I guess I believe that if you can't stand the smell of your SO then the two of you really aren't compatible.  Body odors are very natural and other creatures on this earth use natural scents and odors to attract mates so why shouldn't the same be true for people?

I dated a guy who uses Ralph Lauren cologne before.  Great taste :)

I tend to play with my perfumes, but I stick with either a citrus-y smell or a vanilla/lavender scent. My SO prefers the vanilla/you smell like cookies kind of scent. He loves when I have my tanning oil on because its a very strong vanilla/cocoa smell. I tend to prefer in my SO that it's just a showered, deodorant smell. I'm not fond of colognes and I'd rather he just smell nice than overpowering. But I do like his deodorant...still not sure what it is!

Old Spice original. I don't know what it is about it, but the smell drives me nuts. When my boyfriend found out I liked it, he bought the shower gel, deodorant, and the spray. He's weeded out most of them now, switching for a stronger deodorant and he only wears the spray at certain times. But, he always uses the shower gel. When he gets out of the shower, I want to jump him. :)

As for me, my boyfriend prefers the most natural scent I can get. He does, however, like the clinique perfume called miracle. Light and citrusy.

If this wasn't obvious and bad fiction I would say you are creepy when you shop. 

Irish Spring body wash, Issey Miyake cologne, both suggested to me by girls :). 

I don't have a specific cologne I like on guys. As a general rule I like most colognes though and it's a big plus to me if a guy wears it. My dad wears Calvin Klein's "Obsession" so normally if a guy wears that I feel an instant of "normalcy" around him. Old spice is what my first BF wore and so while I'm not a fanatic about it, I still think it'd be weird for a SO to wear it. That smell was never a favorite of mine anyway.

i used to be a sucker for issey miyake - just a hint of it, enough to draw my attention from whatever i was doing.  i still like it, but mixed with that clean, showered, but still smells like a GUY scent. know what i mean?

and for myself, i wear Philosophy's Amazing Grace.  it's the only scent i can stand to wear all day (i'm not normally a fan of perfume).

asian guys usually don't wear anything, but i love love love it when they wear giorgio armani's acqua di gio. it's a classic. and i always wear dolce and gabbana's light blue. guys love that stuff. lol.

My boy wears Old Spice and even though it smells clean, it makes him an old man.  LOL.  I don't know, I just associate Old Spice with older men (like in their 30s and 40s...must be the commercials).

I don't wear perfume that much but I like VS's line.

i just like the smell of clean. like frehs laundry and soap like dial irish spring dove and stuff like that, lol

The sense of smell invokes memories past.

Even ten years after the end of a relationship, if we are walking through a mall and we smell a certain perfume or cologne, we often find ourselves stopping in our tracks, or at least turning our heads out of instinct.  We remember, subconsciously, what our lovers smelled like -- and while we cannot invoke those memories at will, when they are triggered by direct stimulation, we remember with the such clarity that it seems not a day has passed since we last saw them.

When the sense memory of Smell is activated, and we deprive ourselves of visual and aural input (closing the eyes, being in a quiet room), we can begin to experience the sense memories that are buried deeper; touch and taste.  We begin to remember what it felt like for a lover to unbutton our shirts, to run their hand over the bare skin of our chests and shoulders.  We begin to remember what it felt like for their lips to touch ours.  And then the deepest sense memories come out and we remember, in the most powerful recollection of all, the taste of their kiss...
