"Beauty Tested, Beast Approved is a grooming blog for normal guys. My wife, Amy (the beauty director of Allure magazine) has tried thousands of products over the years\u2014mostly on herself, but often on the human guinea pig who sleeps next to her. Here are some of my picks, and for all Beast Approved entries, head here.\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\n I rarely wear cologne, and I laugh out loud at some of the language used to describe it (\"a refined yet bold bouquet of the noblest citrus\"), but there are occasions when a spray of EDT can make all the difference. I'll leave scent criticism to the professionals; I'm just a regular guy who's happy to let you in on what I wear and what I like.\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\n You'll be hard-pressed to find a man (or woman) who doesn't approve of Chanel's Allure Homme &amp;amp;#xC9;dition Blanche ($57 for 1.7 oz., chanel.com). I've been wearing this cologne at every wedding I've attended (including my own) for the last two years. It's what I grab when I'm in the mood to dress up\u2014rich and manly without an ounce of cheese. Considering how infrequently I use cologne, the number of compliments I've received on this one prove it has mass appeal in the best possible way.\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\n My other go-to fragrance is on the more adventurous side of the olfactory spectrum. By Kilian's Prelude to Love ($225 for 1.7 oz., bykilian.com) is a unisex scent you won't find being spritzed at the local department store. For starters, it's ridiculously expensive\u2014you have to be loaded to use this stuff on a daily basis. It also takes a little getting used to. This is not the most masculine scent (it's mainly floral and citrus), but that's exactly what makes it so light, refreshing, and hence, versatile. I can\u2014and do\u2014wear it whether I'm dressing for a casual rooftop barbecue or a night of bar-hopping."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
