Do you have something really big coming up that you need to look your best for?Perhaps, you have a huge sales pitch for a big client or maybe you finally worked up the courage to ask that girl from the second floor out.
Whatever the case may be, you're going to need to look good and more importantly, smell good too.
It's all pretty confusing I know but that doesn't make it any less important.
In fact, the choice of cologne can be as make-or-break to your personal style as everything else you are wearing.
If you go with a strong smelling, musky cologne for a job interview, forget about being taken seriously or perhaps you chose a light, fruity smelling one on a date.
Good luck getting that second one.
Here are of the four basic questions asked most about cologne basics:

• Where do you wear cologne - You can wear cologne to work just as long as it isn't too much or a distraction to other coworkers.
  When going out for a night on the town, wearing cologne is a must.
  The time of day and situation determine the type of cologne you should wear.
  Light, citrus-based scents tend to be more suited for work or afternoon luncheons.
  While stronger or muskier scents work best in the evening on dates.
  
• Where do you spray cologne - The rules of wearing cologne state that where you apply it is much more important than you may believe.
  Start with a little bit under each ear.
  This allows for a woman leaning in close to talk to catch of a whiff.
  Some people advice to wear some on your face and chin but I found that my chest works best.
  It mixes with your own natural scent the best there as it slowly makes its way up to your collar.
  
• When do you wear cologne - Whenever any guy asks me for advice on cologne, the first thing I tell them is to buy more than one kind of smell.
  Every guy needs one bottle to wear during the day for work and other similar functions and then they need a spicy or musky bottle of cologne to wear at night.
  The atmosphere of night time events are different than day and that's why you want to wear something that fits the mood.
  
• How much cologne do you wear - Not everybody in the building needs to know what your cologne smells like.
  The only people who should know what type of scent you have on are the ones in your close personal space.
  Try to apply only a small amount in the right places.
  While it may not seem like you are applying a lot on, remember that cologne mixes with your body and strengthens over time.
  I see entirely too many guys load up on cologne and then up stinking out the joint because it's overwhelming and obnoxious after awhile.
