He'll smell fresh wearing these colognes from Le Labo, Aesop, Jo Malone, Dior and more.
Valentine's Day is almost here, and cologne is always a great gift for the special man in your life. To appeal to all of the senses, a man loves to smell as good as he looks. The timing couldn't be better, because with the holiday of love upon us, cologne is a great Valentine's Day gift for men.
Retire aquatic citruses and lightweight florals of the passing season in favor of richer, cozier notes for winter: think syrupy whiskey, resinous woods and aromatic cardamom that complement the crisp winter air. From tried-and-true scents that stand the test of time to exciting new releases from up-and-coming brands, we've rounded up the best fragrance for men to wear in 2024 and beyond.
Whether you're looking to splurge or save, our list of top men's colognes has something for everyone. TikTok (and actor Paul Mescal) is obsessed with Le Labo's warm, musky AnOther 13. For something a little more budget-friendly, snif's herbal chocolate House of 8 smells rich and indulgent, starting at just $25. And if you're new to the fragrance world, Azzaro's The Most Wanted Intense is an addictive crowd-pleaser with impressive staying power.
