Write equation for reaction of eugenol with sodium hydroxide and explain why the product is soluble in water?
Eugenol acts as an acid, NaOH acts as the base. NaOH strips a proton from eugenol, forming a salt, Na(eugenol(minus)H) and water.

Equation for eugenol and NaOH?
NaOH strips the proton from eugenol giving the oxygen on eugenol a negative charge, a sodium cation, and water

Why is eugenol used in most men's fragrances?
Eugenol is a constituent of essential oils (lavender, rosemary, etc.) which are sometimes used to create cologne/perfume. So either the eugenol is just a part of the essential oils used to create the fragrance, or the eugenol is added as a preservative.
