How to choose your signature scent
Match the fragrance to how you live. If you want one bottle that does everything, a fresh-but-warm aromatic or a light woody works from the office to the pub. Prefer to make an impression? Reach for a sweet amber or a spicy oriental. Spend a lot of time outdoors in summer? A citrus or aquatic keeps you smelling clean and crisp.
Concentration matters too. Eau de Parfum (EDP) lasts longer and projects harder than Eau de Toilette (EDT) — handy if you want all-day performance from a couple of sprays.
Bold Eau de Parfums for the evening
Richer, longer-lasting and more attention-grabbing — these are built for nights out.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best men's aftershave?
The best one suits your lifestyle and skin. Fresh aromatics are the safest all-rounders; sweet ambers and woody orientals make the biggest impression. Browse our top picks above to find yours.
What's the difference between aftershave and cologne?
In everyday use the terms overlap, but technically aftershave/cologne (Eau de Cologne) is lighter, while Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum hold more oil and last longer.
How many sprays of aftershave should a man use?
Three to four sprays is plenty — neck, chest and one on each wrist. Stronger Eau de Parfums need fewer.
