Expensive men's colognes. Men's perfume. How to choose

We have already written about the opportunity to buy good perfumes for relatively little money and gave examples of women's fragrances no more than 1,500 rubles. But it would be unfair to ignore the strong half of humanity. Therefore, today we offer 10 perfume compositions for men, whose cost does not exceed 1500 rubles, which does not negatively affect the quality of fragrances.

A light, glassy-cold fragrance from the woody-aquatic group. It does not have brightness, but it is fresh and quite harmonious. Many perfume ladies will find it too ordinary, but most men like it, perhaps precisely because of its simplicity. The perfect solution for daily use. Suitable for both walking and office use. Not all resources list lavender in the pyramid, but in L’Eau Pour Homme you can clearly feel it, and in some places even solo.

An elegant fougere fragrance with citrus accents and light freshness. At one time he was very popular and unusual. Now, against the backdrop of an abundance of “fresh” ones, it is a little lost, but continues to be an example of high quality and amazing versatility. A perfume that will suit a man of any age and for any image, it obviously will not cause a negative reaction from others, it is quite politically correct. Chrome remains stable, untouched by re-releases, and in 20 years it has become an intelligent classic. Another great quality of this fragrance is that it is suitable for any season. In summer, Chrome is refreshing, in winter, spring and autumn, the pleasant warmth of spices wakes up in it. But in severe frosts, he can burn with his pricklyness.

Another representative of the old school, born in 1998 and belonging to the oriental-spicy group. Despite its oriental origin, it is not at all sweet, there is no cloying in it. A slightly chaotic start of citrus and spice quickly smooths out, giving way to the nobility of wood and resin. A fragrance with a lively, strong character, sitting close to the body, absorbed in playing with the owner. Jaipur is suitable for mature men who are able to appreciate its exquisite taste. It is better to wear it from late autumn to early spring, when the fragrance fully reveals the spicy warmth.

A thick, citrusy fragrance that reflects the classic perfume trend of the 90s. Weekend is not a boring and hackneyed fruit compote or “fresh”, it has depth and style, although the perfume does not make any special claims. It is quite suitable for both the warm season and the cold. In the heat, juicy citruses are activated, and in the cold - melon with honey and sandalwood. Judging by the male reviews on the network, perfumes are associated with first love, evoke a romantic mood. Weekend will look great in casual attire for the office and for a date. Sometimes the perfume gives out a little soapiness, but not chemical, but natural and quite pleasant. It has no age restrictions, and is generally quite versatile, except that it is not very appropriate for an evening event that requires heavier, semantic fragrances.

Decent woody-spicy fragrance for solid, stylish men. Spices are powdered with cardamom, white flowers recede before cedars and vanilla, everything shimmers harmoniously. Sillage and leaves pleasant memories. Definitely expensive and self-confident perfume, suitable for adult men. The network often compares Black Touch with Terre D'Hermes and, indeed, you can find common associations in them, but this does not detract from the merits of Franck Olivier perfumes. The fragrance turned out to be very expressive, suitable both for working days and for a pleasant stay, up to evening events.

An intelligently subtle woody-spicy fragrance filled with a combination of spices and violets. Moreover, the violet in Hommage is quite masculine, giving the spirits sophistication. The richness of the aroma gives oud and musk. It sits very close to the body, so don't overdo it; possesses enviable firmness especially on clothes. You can’t call it age-appropriate, but it won’t look good on a young athlete either, as we combine it with suits and sweaters. Nice, sweet and spicy perfume for spring. Unconditional decoration of the male image, placing accents and giving elegance.

A sweet yet fresh oriental-woody fragrance from 2003. It should be noted right away that this perfume is not for everyone. It is for men with a sweet tooth, because chocolate, vanilla, raspberry, lavender and an abundance of flowers give it a strong sweetness not typical of men's perfumes. But if you make friends with him, then both depth and sophistication will come through, all the abundance of ingredients will play harmoniously, highlighting one note or another. Perfectly suits the business image of a man over 30. The warmth of the Individuel is designed for autumn-winter, when the sweetness will not strain, but will give a feeling of comfort.

Expensive and high-quality wine glass for ridiculous money. If you're looking for a personal, unhackneyed scent that harmoniously combines the sweetness of cardamom, the freshness of fruit and the naturalness of oak moss, then Le Roy Soleil Extreme is a great option. At first, this fragrance gives off a little cologne, but in the end it becomes a gentle powdery. The Sun King has a strong natural beginning, it is the forest spirit of freedom that is conveyed by oak moss. A very masculine fragrance, without a hint of unisex, perfectly emphasizes the masculinity of its owner. In winter it is fresh and clean, in summer it is warm and noble. Suitable for everyday use, but looks especially advantageous in the evening.

A bit gourmand with a unisex woody fougère. Appetite gives a combination of apple-cinnamon-coffee. This is how a cup of coffee is seen, and next to it is a piece of strudel or charlotte. The edibility dilutes the bergamot, and after a couple of hours it completely disappears, leaving a noble combination of coffee, leather and tonka beans. A rather tolerant, not suffocatingly sweet fragrance that will perfectly fit into the wardrobe of almost any man. It lasts a long time, especially on clothes and is suitable for autumn-spring coolness.

Quite austere oriental-spicy aroma with character and abundance of pepper. But the pepper wears off pretty quickly, leaving a mild combination of sage and cardamom. Subtle and elegant, not flashy, but noticeable perfume. According to not too many reviews on the network (which indicates his lack of familiarity), this is how the boss should smell. He is really a little old, solid. The young man in it will look strange. At the same time, Attimo sits well and wears just as well, without causing negativity of others. His style is unambiguously businesslike, but you can experiment with the seasons.

Each person expresses their individuality in different ways: some do it with exclusive clothes, others with expensive watches, and still others resort to exclusive fragrances. A perfume trail can emphasize masculinity or femininity, create a mood or be a hallmark of a personality. Fragrances always play a certain role in people's lives. Exclusive lovers are ready to pay a lot of money to make the fragrance coming from them rich and special.

From reviews of New Haarlem:

“As an avid coffee drinker, I adore the aroma of coffee beans with their tart bitterness. As soon as I found out that there is a coffee aroma, I immediately purchased it. This is the smell of a good coffee house, with good aromatic coffee, a bar where whiskey is poured, unobtrusive tobacco smoke. A lot of people don't believe it's perfume, they say I smell like I've been sitting in a coffee shop all night."

“I gave my MCH New Haarlem ... I have mixed feelings: I regret not keeping it for myself, but on the other hand, how awesome it is to inhale the aroma of coffee from his skin! I close my eyes and imagine drinking coffee with cream liqueur, near the fireplace in a cozy wooden hut.
