Have fun smelling like the masses of high school and college guys who wear it. The figure must be in the 20%-30% range. Walk through any place populated heavily by either group (college hallway, mall, etc.) and you'll quickly run out of fingers to count the number of times you smell Gio.
I'd also like to quote the man who got me interested in various mens' fragrances, an expert on the subject,
Quote:
The problem with most men buying cologne is that you buy it because you care enough about making an impression that you want to stand out, however you probably don't know enough about them so you end up buying the same thing everyone else is and floating aimlessly on a sea of Aqua Di Gio. This is not your fault and isn't even age related, due to a complete lack of marketing the scents I'm going to tell you about will never make it into any magazine like GQ or Cargo, so all most people are exposed to are the endless clones of Kenneth Cole, Armani, or Polo reeking up from the scent flaps of the mags.
...
Many deodorants like Old Spice and Degree have scents built in like PINE BLAST or COOL WAVE or TROPIC SPICE because they know many guys are too lazy to wear a fragrance. Again, smelling like a deodorant all day should logically strike people as a bad idea. It costs 4 bucks. I have never encountered anything for four dollars that I'd want to smell like all day.

Analog, try Kenzo Pour Homme (dark blue bottle.) It's a much more complicated and refined scent than you'll get from a $5 aerosol can, and I'm 90% sure you'll like it. If you do try it, let me know what you think.
