Advantages: classic style, uniqueness in the CK era Disadvantages: none really
...uses it in his fragrances. Paco Rabanne pour homme has been around for eons. I guess that's saying something in this fickle fashion world we live in.
This has to be one of the most soft and fresh fragrances a man can find. I have to admit I stayed away from it, largely due to the fact that my Dad used to wear it when I was young (though he also wore Eau Sauvage which is now one of my faves ;).
But recently I saw an offer that I couldn't refuse ... ...quid for a 50ml bottle in superdrug).
Lets start with the bottle - it will sit proudly on your bathroom shelf or your dressing table. It is non-fussy, and simple design. Apart from M7, this has to be one of the smartest bottle designs - no cap to fuss with.
The fragrance itself will shock most young men. The more mature will appreciate its approach though. It starts of very sharp, very high. If anyone knows what Sage and Rosemary smell like, its ...

I was surprised to see this here. Does anyone still use this heady aftershave? I thought it was completely out of fashion.
Once the preferred choice of those that thought they were going somewhere or were part of the in crowd.....whatever that means......it rapidly became the one not to wear, simply because nearly everyone else seemed to. It then became the favourite of 'representatives' and you could not avoid the pungent aromaa at sales conventions. ...

Advantages: Used as it should be, it should last you a long time. Disadvantages: Even slightly too much=WAY OVERPOWERING.
...or for anytime, I think Paco would best be used for formal and special occassions, and if the lady (or man) in your life particularly likes you very masculine, then this is great.
Overall, a long staying fragrance, which I personally find very pleasant. Just be careful, used overly and you smell highly volatile! ...

Advantages: Clean sexy smell Disadvantages: Been around awhile. No longer considered cool or hip
From the first moment I ever smelled this, I was in love. That it is still around almost two decades later is a tribute to it's popularity. Yes, there was a time when it was the "scent of the day" and it seemed everyone was wearing it, then along came something else and the young and restless moved on, and the old faithfuls stayed true. Occasionally, you'll still find a younger guy who just happens to be wearing it, but I suspect this is one of those ... ...to smell on their men = so we buy it for birthdays, Christmas, Valentine's Day or Father's Day. And why do men wear after shave? Is it not in order to attract those of the opposite sex?
Yes, it's heady but there's a sexy clean fresh smell underneath as it fades. In a sense it's dated in that it brings back lots of memories, but then again it's also making more! Give it another 20 years and it'll probably still be around - I wonder how many of today's ...
