As for the bolded part, what? Maybe if you wear AdG or Curve (the go to fragrances for guys who don't care), then definitely. But that's not so in my case. Costume National 21, By Kilian's Back to Black, Hermes Ambre Narguile, etc. I can guarantee I would NOT smell like every other guy in the club. And also, it's not that expensive. My collection is largely made up of samples and decants, which tend to range between 2.5 and 7.5ml and range in price from $2.00 to $25.00 (depending on the fragrance). In my case, I've gotten quite a few for free because, thankfully, I have a forum dedicated to fragrances with very generous members. I've had some for over a year, which I can't say about deodorant. And I smell better too.
