Cologne for Hubby

Hey guys, I need a new cologne for my hubby. He used to buy Old Spice Hawkridge but now wants something more refined. He likes Acqua di Gio but personally I'm not crazy about it. He also liked Bleu by Chanel but it gave him a rash. He's fine with most scented products but just in case I need to find something that comes in smaller sizes in case it breaks him out. We don't know which ingredients irritate him.  Any suggestions?

A specificialist is worth checking out to see what he's reacting to. Alternatively, you can keep your search within toilettes which are less potent than parfums. As for scents, what is he into? Warm and Spicy, Fresh, Earth and Woody? Dior Sauvage is a nice masulin scent. I prefer the sweeter scents such as Polo Red by Ralph Lauren, Y Man by YSL, or Invictus by Paco Rabanne. I also find the Sport of any fragrance nice, especially Prada Sport.

Re: Cologne for Hubby

I agree. Eros by Versace is one of my fav perfumes....:)

Just saw this, and I imagine his gift gas been handled. but for future suggestion, Eros by Versace is amaaaaazing.

Re: Cologne for Hubby

Classic colognes that you should be able to easily find testers for (and request samples) are JP Gaultier's Le Male, Dior's Eau Sauvage and Calvin Klein's cK One. Creed's Aventus is also very popular but it's at a higher price point and may be more challenging to nab a sample. Atelier Cologne (unisex) has samplers at Sephora, but again, these are more expensive than designer scents.

Re: Cologne for Hubby

Thank you for the suggestion! I ordered some grooming products on here for him and got a free Atelier sample. I like it a lot, so if he likes it and it doesn't bother him, it may be worth the splurge because he will only use it in small amounts so it should last awhile 🙂

Thank you! There are a couple that I'm potentially looking at!

Re: Cologne for Hubby

Based on what he likes, I think he might like Dolce & Gabbana's Light Blue. It's one of my boyfriend's favourites, he's already onto his second bottle. 😛
