Types of Fragrances that Colognes Can Have

Fragrances are a blend of scented oils and a carrier ingredient which is most commonly alcohol. The goal of the carrier ingredient is to dilute the oil and stabilize the scent allowing it to last longer. The higher the percentage of oil to alcohol, the more it lingers. The varying ratios between these ingredients are why different types of perfumes last for varying amounts of time. Sometimes it feels as if you’ve not applied any at all, then other times, your scent will last all day and well into the night. Getting your head around the different types will help you make the best decision next time you’re at the perfume counter.

Eau Fraiche

Eau fraiche is the lightest fragrance option for men. It translates as ‘fresh water’ and contains between one and three percent oil. Additionally, it tends to use water as the carrier rather than alcohol. As such, it generally only stays on the skin for an hour or so. It’s good for kicking around the house if you want to smell fresh when you get out of the shower, but it’s not ideal if you want it to last all day. However, it is also the cheapest fragrance type.

Eau-de-Cologne

Next up is eau-de-cologne. With an oil concentration of two to four percent, it lasts for a couple of hours. Again, like eau fraiche, it’s less expensive, but you don’t get the longevity. It’s best suited for fresh, summery scents such as citrus, fruits, and some florals.

Eau-de-Toilette

One of the most common types of mens’ fragrance is eau-de-toilette (EDT). The concentration of oil will vary from five to 15 percent, depending on the brand. This means it will linger on your skin for three hours, or even up to a full day, and is ideal for the workplace. However, it’s not quite strong enough to take you through to the evening, so if you’re heading out to dinner after work, you’ll need a refresher spray.

Eau-de-Parfum

Eau-de-Parfum is traditionally found more often among women’s fragrances; however, it is becoming more popular with men’s scents. That’s thanks to its increased longevity, as the oil concentration sits between 15 and 20 percent. This will have you smelling amazing for five to eight hours, which is enough to last through an entire day. However, because it is stronger, you need to be wary that you’re not over spraying, as it can be a bit intense. You’ll also pay a lot more for this type, but depending on your needs, it’s often worth every cent.

Parfum

The final type of fragrance is parfum. It’s pure, strong, and expensive. However, with an oil ratio of 20 to 30 percent, a spray can last up to 24 hours. It will also change throughout the day as it dries down (evaporates), showcasing the different levels of fragrance notes. Apply sparingly, as this is the kind of fragrance that will linger in a room long after you’ve departed. As such, it’s perfect for long days such as weddings where you won’t have a chance to refresh but still want to be looking and smelling your best.

Cologne Fragrance Lifecycle

Every perfume has a fragrance lifecycle. As the oils and alcohol evaporate (or ‘dry down’ in the industry terms) from your skin, the perfume moves through three different layers of scents — top, middle, and base. Consequently, good perfumes don’t just smell nice straight up; they tell a story throughout the day or night. The perfect scent will have the right complex combination of oils have you smelling amazing no matter where in the lifecycle you are.

Top Notes

The top notes are the scents you smell first when spraying a cologne. Also known as head notes, they tend to be lighter, fresher, and brighter. These include citruses, aquatic, aromatic florals, and herbaceous scents like grapefruit, lemon, mint, or ginger. This layer generally lasts from 30 minutes to two hours before giving way to the middle notes.

Middle Notes

When the top notes dry down, you’ll get to meet the middles notes, also known as the heart. These take time to develop, so you won’t really notice them when sampling fragrance on a blotter card. Try new perfumes on your skin, and smell them every hour or so to see the changes occurring. Once the middle notes show up, they’ll usually last for three to four hours. Ingredients in this part of the lifecycle are generally floral, green, fruity, and spicy, such as jasmine, cinnamon, geranium, and coriander.

Base Notes

The final step of the cycle is the base notes. These will start to come through while the heart notes are still drying down. Generally, base notes are stronger, bolder, and incredibly masculine. They’ll also determine how long your scent lasts as they’re the final ones standing, lingering for five to ten hours. Look for notes of tonka bean, vanilla, moss, vetiver, sandalwood, tobacco, leather, oud, and musk.

Cologne Fragrance Families

Just like your wardrobe is a reflection of your personality and style, your selection of fragrance should also be representative of who you are as a man. If you’re a bit mysterious and keep things close to your chest, then a woody, sensual style is perfect. However, if you’re the life of the party and have a zest for all things fun, then opting for a bright, lively citrus scent is a better fit. Of course, you’re also allowed to have more than one fragrance! When it comes to choosing, the world of scents is very complex, and you can break perfumes down into over a dozen categories. However, men’s fragrances usually fall within four broad main categories — floral, oriental, woods, and fresh.

Floral

Floral notes aren’t just for the ladies. It’s an extensive and diverse group of ingredients that works harmoniously with scents from the other groups to create a balanced perfume. While you probably don’t want to smell like your grandmother, specific florals are more masculine and can also have a calming effect. Look for jasmine, gardenia, tuberose, magnolia, and iris.

Oriental

Hypnotic and sensual, the oriental fragrance family has a lot of members you’re likely familiar with. These include resins such as frankincense, oud, and myrrh, plus spices like clove, cinnamon, and ginger. Often you’ll find oriental fragrances in the base notes, thanks to their sweet, rich smells that pack a punch. While most perfumes will contain at least one element from this family, colognes that are heavy on this are best suited for evening and winter wear.

Woods

Woods are prevalent in men’s fragrances because they’re incredibly masculine. You’ll be reminiscing about nights by the campfire, old books, and hiking through green forests. In this family, you’ll find sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli, oak, amber, leather, and vetiver – all dry, warm scents that work best as heart and base notes. Because of their warmth and familiarity, fragrances heavy with woods are well suited for the cold winter months.

Fresh

Chill out from the hot summer months with a fragrance containing fresh scents. These kinds of notes will cut through the heat and have you feeling relaxed in no time. Think of elements like jasmine, aquatic scents, citrus, bergamot, mint, and freshly mowed lawns. Zesty and crisp, these tend to be most prevalent in the top notes and will give you an energy boost creating a spirited first impression.

How to Choose the Right Cologne

How exactly do you choose the right cologne for you? Most options are incredible and smell great, but there are a few tips to know if it’s right for you. Start with knowing when and where you’re wearing your perfume. Ideally, you’ll have a couple of different fragrances for different seasons and occasions. Always try before you buy, and be patient with the process. While you’re trying new perfumes, pay attention to which individual notes keep coming up in the ones you like, as that can help narrow down your options. Once you’ve made your decision, knowing where to spray and how to store it will ensure longevity for your new signature scent.

Change with The Season

Like you have different clothes for summer and winter, you should also have different fragrances for each season. Some scents work better in the heat, such as citrus, light florals, and aquatic notes. Meanwhile, in the dead of winter and it’s snowing outside, you’ll be longing for a rich, warming perfume with leathery, woody, and spicy notes.

Know The Occasion

Appropriately dressing for the occasion also means smelling appropriate as well. That’s why it’s crucial to spray for the situation. There’s not much worse than getting stuck in a meeting room at work with someone who’s wearing an overpowering perfume. You don’t want to be that guy, so opt for something light, fresh, and sophisticated in the office. However, if you’re dressed to impress for a date, choose something more sensual and seductive with warm, masculine wood notes. Then, if you’re just kicking around on the weekend, a casual scent is ideal. Select something fresh, appealing, and easy to wear.

Try Before You Buy

Unless you’re genuinely chaotic, you should always try perfumes before you buy them. Start the process by spraying ones you might like on a blotter card. Take them away, do some other shopping, have lunch, and then smell them again. Narrow it down to a couple of favorites, and then spray them on your skin. The natural chemicals in your body will interact with the oils and alcohols in the perfume, causing the fragrance to smell slightly different on everyone. You need to make sure you like it on you. Plus, as previously discussed, every perfume has a lifecycle, so it’s good to leave the fragrance on and smell it every hour as it shifts between the layers so that you can appreciate all the notes. Buying perfume can take time, so be patient with the process, and don’t make a hasty, rushed decision.

Learn Where To Spray

Smell your best by knowing where to spray your perfume. Ideally, you want to create a bubble that gives people the best impression when they interact with you, and that will help your fragrance last longer. Know your pulse points, which are hotspots on your body that help warm the molecules and project the perfume better. These include behind the ears, on your neck near the jugular, the base of the throat, and the chest. While the wrists are a popular choice for spraying, you won’t get much bang for your buck, as (hopefully) no one is sniffing your cuffs, and it can wear off faster with washing your hands. Finally, don’t overdo it, especially if you’ve got an eau de parfum or parfum. Three strategic sprays should be sufficient for most styles.

Know Your Notes

Perfume creators can choose from thousands of ingredients. However, certain elements, such as sandalwood, vetiver, cedarwood, lavender, and bergamot, pop up regularly in gents’ fragrances. It can help to take note of the ones of these you like, plus any other repeating notes the come up in your favorite perfumes. Knowing this will help guide future purchases, as you can explore the same fragrance families and narrow down similar but unique options.

Store Scents Smartly

Finally, once you’ve found your new signature scent, you need to store it correctly, so it doesn’t spoil. Perfumes are a mix of oils, alcohols, and chemicals, which will break down on a molecular level over time. This process speeds up when exposed to light, air, and heat. Consequently, for the most extended life, keep your fragrances stored in a cool, dry, dark spot such as a dresser draw, closet, bedroom, or even refrigerator. Don’t keep them in the bathroom, as the heat and moisture fluctuations aren’t healthy. Other tips include not opening your perfume until your ready to use it, don’t shake the bottle excessively, and keep the original bottle with the lid on to stop excess air exposure.
