After reading these threads lately I went on a hunt this morning for some cologne (my current deoderant is all I use and smells like talcum/baby powder, and I'm often embarrasingly aware of it).
After finding the cheapest cologne was $59 (Australian) for 'Nomad' (which I'd never heard mentioned here), I decided to see what was in the cheaper range.
So I went out and bought a $6 bottle of cheap cologne (the box says "Our alternative to Hugo Boss Aqua"). With all the mention of 'Aqua Di Gio' I thought it might be the same one, but I don't think it is. Anyway, I wore it tonight and far from being complimented, the friends I was with all constantly thought they smelled onions.
I'm not kidding. My $6 cologne smells like onions.
At least I only wasted $6, and I know now what not to buy from now on.
