I have been putting cologne on my neck and the center of my chest, my father never wears any so I didn't really learn from him, is this an appropriate place?

Neck is good, not sure about the chest..... seems like a waste unless you're wearing your shirt halfway open.

Spray a cloud in the air about a foot in front and above you, then walk under the cloud of cologne molecules and let them settle on you.

+1 This is what I do for spray cologne, plus a little spritz on the wrists. For non-spray I put a dab behind each ear and on both wrists. Someone once told me the idea is to put it where the skin is thin, so the warmth of body heat and blood flow encourage evaporation.

True.

Neck, wrist, crook of arm, behind knee, under scrotum.

Me, too. Sometimes.

Others, I don't put any on my neck or near my head. I spray once on my chest, then wipe it a bit with my hands up to my neck, etc. I hate smelling like cologne, and I hate smelling men who smell like cologne.

Most women have more sensitive noses than men, too, so you might want to try a few different things and ask a female friend to compare each day.

I apply cologne all over my torso, legs, arms , neck etc. Eau de Parfum, on my pulse points.

I spray it like there's no tomorrow, but I can do it because I don't wear some shoddy portent of date rape like Aqua de Gio or Diesel cologne.

Put the tiniest amount on my fingertip and apply on the neck over the artery and a little on the wrists. The heat generated by your blood will evaporate the cologne throughout the day. I put enough that it's barely noticeable.
