Ohh Good idea. I love that candle. I'll think that I'll buy a couple and light them and dream away.

YAY!
I might be a part of a foreign exchange program.... guess what country....
Italy!!!!
the land of Bvlgari and Armani... 
I *might* get some perfume.. just... for me..... hee hee!Remember, what you smell out of the bottle will smell different when it mixes with his body chemistry,so we won't really know how it smells on him for sure. Only those who have gone on stage and got a wiff would know and could tell us if it was close to the out of bottle scent.

I have been buying that Yankee Candle for years but I never knew it smelled like his JT vest! I knew there was some reason I loved the scent so much!!

)I was just in Bed Bath & Beyond and they have that Yankee candle there. I opened and smelled it. It's heavenly. I didn't buy it though. I will tomorrow. The funny thing is I use Dune by Dior and my hubby uses Dolce & Gabbana! I love this thread!!!

The brand of candle is Yankee Candle, that particular scent is called Midsummer's Night. I am a Yankee Candle fanatic, I have tons of different scents from them.

Yankee Candles are the best.
My parents and sister have bunches of them. My boyfriend hates candles though, so I don't buy any. His aunt did give me a big Fruit Smoothie jar candle for Christmas though...so I burn that.

Now theres an idea!!!

Sorry Sorry , didn't mean to do that, I would just love to know how it would really smell on HIM. This reminded me of how Chanel number 5 smells on me vs my sister. When I wear it, it smells like berries,but when she wears it, it smells too strong and sharp on her.
A thousand pardons guys, that wasn't my true intention(Bursting Bubbles) At least we will know what scent he does go for though!!!

LivLuvAndBootlegMusic said:Ok about the candle, it smells like Bono's JT leather vest, not necessarily his cologne. The candle thing started when this person I used to chat with was telling me about her U2 stuff and how she had one of Bono's JT leather vests and she said it smelled just like the candle.
In 2002, I got some of Bono's lotion on my hands and it smelled WAY better than the candle.
More likely, Bono's changed colognes over the years. As a man, I know I haven't used the same cologne.
Cologne or fragrant aftershave is really about what work's with a man's body chemistry. In the 80's, I wore this cheap "Fresh Scent Old Spice". This is NOT regular Old Spice (my father wore that for years - I never liked that scent on him, just didn't work). But the Fresh Scent version worked with me - I received tons of sincere compliments. So this cheap $3 aftershave did the trick (for a while). It just worked with my body chemistry (does this mean I have a cheap body?
)I've also used slighly more expensive items, like Drakkar and Polo, before they became ridiculously overused. Drakkar, fortunately, isn't quite the hit anymore. It's very subtle on me, which is what a cologne should be. I may go back to it.
Today's young men are dousing themselves in body spray. I use them too - nothing wrong with keeping a fresh scent after a shower. But they must use half the can at once! This is overuse and it doesn't work. The sprays overpower them and they stink.
I've never been close to Bono (not an ambition of mine...
) but I'm sure he's learned how to use cologne and what type to use that works well with his natural odors. From what I'm reading here, he's found it. Now, for you ladies with men, teach them the same thing. Oh, and the same is true for some women. What smells great in a bottle may not smell great on you.

I agree that todays men (esp younger men) use WAY too much aftershave/cologne.... it smells bad... when I walked around school, we always avoided the halls of the PE classes... to avoid the bad smell of Axe deodoratn...
oh and they think it's funny to set their deo on fire aswell.... till they get the firefighters bill then WE think it's funny!
not that all men are like that... but the 'popular' guys are mostly...

Ah, yes, the evils of Too Much Cologne. I literally see stars sometimes. I have bad sinuses, and can't smell much. But I can tell when too much cologne is being used.
Am I the only wierdo female whose body chemistry works better with men's cologne than women's, in general (barring stuff like the various types of spices and musk oils that are about now)?
Women's perfume just doens't work on me, and I don't quite know why.
