Smoker Wearing Cologne

I tend to smoke on the ocassions I would most likely wear cologne (i.e. social events, not work). Does it make any sense to wear cologne since the cigarette smell could overwhelm it? What do you fellow [social] smokers do?

I ask mainly because I'm in the market to buy a new bottle of cologne.

M7 and cigarette is a nice combo. Guess it depends on the cologne.

It may be different in older crowds, but cigarettes+cologne smell seems to be at the top of a lot of girls' lists in college. It's played out, but GIT works damn well with this. Obviously there's no making doral smoke bearable, but a suitably masculine cologne tends to work pretty well as long as you don't smell like an ash tray.

It's cloyingly sweet on me. YMMV

curiously enough, a number of perfumers are smokers.

How does one maintain an acute enough sense of smell while smoking?

Apparently there's some tiny amount of research that shows they have a better sense of smell, go figure and according to Luca Turin that all makes sense. But most of the research shows is it's not the case.
