hey everyone, I know i keep whining about how the old ammo is gone, but i miss the scent. and so does my gf. she asked me why i changed my cologne when i started using “The Game” scented ammo. i dont use much, but i used it for the scent more than the [pheromones](https://a314.com/). so what cologne would smell like the original ammo? i know some of you guys with crazy sensitive noses can help me out. Thanks much ---

Gegogi swears that Nautica Competition is very close to [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/). Others like Castle say Hugo. ---

Yep, Nautica Competition (yellow bottle) is almost exactly the same scent as Ammo. Mix highly concentrated chemset androstenone, androsterone and androsterone with Nautica Competition and you’ll have a close approximation. To maintain the integrity of the cologne, you need a ratio of about 5 parts cologne to one part mones. I’ve done an AE clone many times (same mones as Ammo but heavier -none ratio) to good effect. I like Ammo and Nautica Competition but there are much nicer colognes if you’re going to go to all the trouble. I have premixed batches with Burberry Weekend, Issey Miyake Summer, CK and Chrome. Nice to have variety. ---

thanks guys. i know there are probably ‘nicer’ colognes out there, but my gf misses my old smell when i had to get all fancy and actually wore cologne. the first time i wore the new Game scented Ammo she thought that i had gotten sprayed by girl perfume lol. i figure i dont really want to smell like a woman anyways ---

Sean John Unforgivable also smells similar, though it’s more a cross between Game and Ammo. -D4 ---

I think I got one of the last batches right before “Game” came out. I recommend you try Emporio Armani Night. I wouldn’t say they smell just the same, actually, but they’re definitely of the same spicy type. I use Night as a cover for Ammo and they blend perfectly. Also, Night is a nicer deeper fragrance than just straight Ammo. Give it a shot. You might like it, and your GF might too. ---

> [@djandarial](#): > > really? Unforgivable you say. Yup. Last year, I ordered some Issey Miyake from Sephora, and they give you 3 sample vials of your choice with orders. I got that as well as one by Versace, and Armani Code. One whiff of the Sean John, and it was pretty much Gammo (Ammo + Game. hurhur am I clever. 😃) Funny, now that I think about it, I never did try any of those. -D4
