A Simple Guide To Choosing The Right Mens Cologne

By Patricia Graham


For the modern day man, not wearing cologne is literally a crime. There is so much that the markets have to offer and currently, fragrance is a well-known territory for not only women, but also men. Picking the right bottle would ensure that you get a scent that makes a millions statements about who you are. So how do you choose a suitable product? There are a few common sense practices that could assist you greatly when shopping for the right mens cologne.

As you go about your shopping, you want to aim at telling people a true story about yourself. Whether you primarily make trips to the office, you are a field person or a contractor who is constantly in gumboots and a helmet, finding the ideal aromatic signature will be of key importance. Forget your schedules and focus on finding something that you could be comfortable wearing, regardless of your plans.

First, you should understand that most perfumes are unisex. Whether there is a clear label for women or for men, you need to note that this will only be used as a marketing slogan. Choosing a scent is a very personal choice and all you have to do is get on the counter and sniff everything you can find until you get what suits you.

One of the key things to note is how long a particular scent is designed to linger. Anything with 20-30% fragrance could be expensive to get from the shelves, though a single dab could last for 24hours. On the other hand fragrance that is will only have what it takes to linger for five to eight hours.

Products whose scent can linger for eight hours are in high demand. They are affordable and wearing such perfume could assure you of making your personal and fashion conscious statements all thorough the regular working hours. There are other options which include water in cologne and eau de Toilette which are designed to last for only a few hours.

It pays to know that fragrance evolves. It is often comprised of different scents and what you smell on your blotter paper while on the counter is not exactly what you would smell like after wearing the perfume in question after three hours. There are a few pointers that could make you a smart shopper.

Fragrance will have a top note, a middle note and a base note. The top note is often lighter and will only linger for an hour or two, the middle note stays for longer and this is basically what your friends will identify you with. The base note is not always the best of scents though it assist greatly in enabling the fragrance to settle in. An ideal cologne will be comprised of notes that complement each other.

Finding the right cologne would take more than a one-time shopping. The truth is that your hunt will be highly based on trial and error until you make the ideal pick. Do your part of the research and perhaps even get some tips from a trusted friend before you choose what to invest in.
