"Smell how horny I am!" ? What his perfume says about the man
He lies on a rock. Cool sea water splashes on his muscular chest. The rough cliff says: I am confident, I stand in life. The wide, blue sea says: I am freedom, I know no borders. The bright sun on his face says: I'm tough, no situation is too hot for me. And this feeling comes as a fragrance in the bottle.
Then Johnny Normalo is back in the middle of life. At the bus stop somewhere in Lower Saxony, at minus 5 degrees. The poster advertising for the latest men's fragrance has given way to the Aldi weekly hits. Can ring for fifty cents, not bad either. Johnny freezes a bit on the beer belly. But for a moment he was a dream guy. An Adonis on the Greek coast. A heartthrob under a Mediterranean sky.
Smells like a Bentley, but drives Skoda
Fragrance is not just scent. Many a man knows the feeling: With the perfume he transforms into a hero, becomes irresistible like a diamond, confident like a white shark and sexy as George Clooney make coffee. Alpha male stop.
But attention, the processes in the male brain are even more complex here! The choice of perfume is a process of deep psychology and says something about who he would like to be. Whether bearded-wild or smooth-smooth, here is a typology of men's fragrances.

He is self-assurance in person. He goes alone to Michelin-restaurants and empties a bottle of wine. Does not like dogs or cats, only women. Speaks reluctantly about himself. Eyes like black holes. It's funny, like Gideon, Castor or Balz.
Then he smells:
Sensual perfumes are usually characterized by a mixture of two of the above "types". The sensually surprising comes from the fact that there single scores ausscheren. Yes, of course it can go in the pants.
