Dolce & Gabbana The One ($52.89)
This fragrance has become a staple for many men looking for a sophisticated savor since it launched in 2008. The blend was revisited and revamped in 2015 making it a more robust version of the original. It leads with soft touches of coriander, basil and grapefruit while hints of ginger, cardamom and sweet orange level this blend out creating a memorable and aromatic cologne. Additionally, it is truly a linear expression as it initially projects with citrus but heats up when it dries down. As summer scents go, this is a true stand out.
The sailing inspired apparel company delivers another way to be in tune with the sea via Nautica Blue. A blend of pineapple and peach is married with jasmine and water lily for a clear nod to the water. Base notes of sandalwood, musk and cedar give it depth creating a masculine smell that is still soft enough for women to appreciate. This eau de toilette is literally so fresh and so clean.
Boss No. 6 By Hugo Boss ($42.78)
If you’re looking for a bottle for everyday use than look no further than Boss No. 6. Hints of apple and vanilla are complimented nicely with underlying tones of sandalwood and cedar. As it settles, the woody notes mature providing a very pleasant invite to anyone within close proximity. This cologne is a straightforward spray that is suitable for gents of all ages.
