Notes -
Smell is the sense most strongly tied to memory. The perfumes in your cleaning products can't, and shouldn't be as sticky. As your hair and body wash regimen changes, your cologne should stay the same.
People will associate the scent with you, especially if it's positive. Multiple women have mentioned how powerful being around me & smelling the cologne again is, even after years of being apart.
It's tempting to put too much on, I do 2 sprays max. One on the chest under my shirt, and one shared between my wrists and behind the ears.
I also have two scents - one for the spring and summer (Light Blue, which is amazing), and one for the fall and winter (Coach, which I like but don't love but was a gift from my wife). I've been using the same ones for a little over a decade.
If you're not interested in creating memories and associations with yourself, there's still the reality that cologne scents are far more refined and higher quality than the old spice bottle you have in the shower. Having multiple ones that you enjoy smelling is worth it anyway, IMO.
