I find, when reviewing scents or sprays, it helps to know a little about the person reviewing to get a better idea whether or not the item may suit you.
I am 23 years old. I trade the stock market during the day, and am a bartender on week nights / weekends. I have an active social life, no wife or children, and own between 15 - 20 colognes. What I personally look for in a scent is a strong, manly, yet sweet smell that gets the ladies attention. What I really hate in a scent is it being overly "tangy" or too citrusy/bitter. An example of a cologne I LOVE would be Ambercrombie: Fierce. An example of a cologne I dislike would be "Usher".
Now, Ive smelled only one other CK cologne so I really wasn't sure what to be expecting, but I read the reviews online and it sounded like something I might like to try.

I really do. The moniker "Contradiction", although catchy, is a misnomer. This product agrees with the senses in every way. Unfortunately, the scent of Contradiction fades quickly and after an hour is no longer detectable from socially appropriate distances. But while it lingers, Contradiction is the most pleasant and romantic cologne on the market.

I bought this cologne without smelling first. I did all my Christmas shopping on line this year and didn't want this to be an exception. I read other customers' reviews before purchasing and was disappointed at first because out of the bottle it was really strong and I wasn't too fond of it. After about 10 minutes on my guy, it mixed with his natural chemical smell and turned out to be PERFECT for him. Other reviews I read indicated a long-lasting scent, which is true. I wouldn't advise buying this blindly online. Test it in the store first to be sure you like it. The price was right, and the packing and shipping were excellent. I also like the bottle cap, which is the grey shell/top in the picture. It's easy on and easy off.
