What cologne do you wear?
Going to start being in a professional environment on a regular basis and wanted some advice on cologne. What cologne would be appropriate to wear to the office? What about going out? Any advice on applying it?
Cycle between:
- Creed: Aventus - Daily driver almost year round.
- Armani Prive: Royal Oud - Intersex but very masculine in an understated way. Avoid if you dislike dark perfumes.
If you want cheap but solid go for Mont Blanc, pick whichever one you like.
Bonus tip: rub some Vaseline on the skin where you’ll be applying to. This means you have to spray less, will last longer and make the projection aura smaller (meaning you’re not wafting the entire office).
My personal opinion is two sprays, one behind each ear
Creed - Santal
Tom Ford - Tuscan Leather
I wear Creed because I recognize that name from The Office
If you want a non-sweet citrus, then you should try out Terre d'Hermes - smells like bitter orange, vetiver & wood
Another nice one is Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver
Some other non-sweet scented ones that I’d recommend include Burberry, Prada L'Homme and Chanel Platinum Egoiste
Bleu de Chanel - always get asked about it!
Creed Virgin Island Water in Spring/Summer/Fall when it’s warm - smells great and imo is inoffensive / tropical enough to wear in the office. Have some generic Coach for Men fragrance for when it’s colder. Eventually I’ll pick up a bottle of Aventus to replace the Coach but it does the job for now and want to buy Creed in Paris since it’s like 50%+ cheaper there.
When I’m out I like smokier / v masculine fragrances I.e. Replica By the Fireplace, Jazz Club, Diptyque Eau Rihla / Tam Dao etc but am iffy about wearing these to the office especially as a younger guy as they can be more aggressive to the nose.
