Top 10 Spring Fragrances For 2021 [0:00:00]
The first fragrance on today’s spring cologne list, I bet 99% of you guys have never heard
of. What is it? 2017 Danse Sauvage by Chris Collins.
This is a boozy spicy seductive fragrance with a bit of oud, but it’s the sweetness,
in particular the plum, which for me makes it a spring fragrance.
Other notes you’ll pick up are cognac, saffron, pepper, nutmeg, cedar, amber, patchouli, and
vanilla. In today’s video, gents, I’m helping you
discover the perfect spring fragrance. [Music]
So, if you can’t tell by the shirt, one of the things I look forward in good spring
fragrance, a floral note and 2012 Prada Luna Rossa has just that.
The top note is going to be lavender mixed in with that bitter orange. You got a bit
of clary sage. And what I really like is you can pick up the mint. The mint is what brings
it altogether right there at the top. At the base, we got a bit of musk and ambroxan.
That’s going to help the fragrance last longer and it’s going to get you compliments.
As an aromatic floral citrus, this is an incredibly versatile fragrance. You can wear it to the
office, you can wear it as an everyday weekend wear. Just a really nice scent to add to your
collections. So, this next fragrance is another one that
that most guys haven’t heard of and that is Roja Perfume’s Creation-E, also known
as Enigma Pour Homme. Now, this is a warm spicy vanilla fragrance
with a bit of tobacco, but I’m putting it here on the spring even though a lot of people
think it’s a fall fragrance because of the white florals. And I think that you can pull
this off on a cool spring day or in the evening. Black pepper, neroli, bergamot, cognac, tobacco,
ginger, jasmine, vanilla, benzoin, and patchouli. This is a complex fragrance and many people
consider it to be a masterpiece. That being said, this fragrance is expensive.
It’s worth $300 a bottle. I don’t know. There’s a lot of people out there that pay
over $400 a bottle for this and they absolutely love it and swear by it.
Now, wouldn’t it be great if you could get and authentic sample of these expensive fragrances,
so that you could make the decision for yourself. Well, gents, that’s what today’s sponsor,
Scentbird, is all about. For a fraction of the cost of a full bottle, you can date a
fragrance before you commit. These are tiny 1 ml samples. Now, you get
enough for a solid month. We’re talking a 140 sprays in every bottle you get. That’s
on average 8 times bigger than a normal sample size, enough for 30 days.
Now, this month, I received quite a few samples. I’ve already talked about Chris Collins’
Danse Sauvage right here. Absolutely love this one.
But, the fragrance I’m wearing today is Chris Collins’ Renaissance Man. Now, this
one I was really interested to try because of the unique combination. It had a honey
mixed in with an oceanic note with a little bit of ginger, we had tobacco with tonka bean.
I’ve never tried anything like this and I absolutely love it.
A couple of other fragrances I received and I’m enjoying, Vince Camuto’s Terra Extreme
and The Harmonist Guiding Water. Now, gents, I’ve been working with Scentbird
for years because I love what they’re doing. They make it so easy for you to go out there
and try fragrances like Man Eau Fraiche. Maybe you don’t want to go spend $70, $80 on a
bottle, you just want to get a sample before you spend that much money, so that you can
say, hey, is this something I like? I think it’s a masterpiece. But, you may
try and say, you know what? It’s too synthetic for me. Or Icon, I love this one. You may
feel though it’s too citrusy. And that’s what I love about Scentbird,
lets you try these fragrances for a solid month, therefore, you could make a better
decision about what is going to be your signature scent this spring, this summer, this fall,
this winter. And, by the way, all the fragrances you’re
going to see in today’s video can be found over at Scentbird. They’ve got a wider collection,
they’re constantly adding new fragrances. So, if you haven’t been over there for awhile,
go check them out. They’ve got some really good selections, including Roja and Creed.
And, remember, gents, use that link down in the description of today’s video, I got
a special deal for you. Go over to Scentbird and find your signature scent.
Now, speaking of Dunhill Icon, I absolutely love this. I feel though it’s a bit more
for summer. For spring, I would recommend Dunhill Icon Racing. This is a citrus aromatic
spicy fragrance with a white floral. And for me, it’s the floral isn’t overpowering,
absolutely just a beautiful fragrance, well-crafted. And I find on my skin, this lasts about four
to five hours, which is pretty good for this type of fragrance.
Opening notes are going to be grapefruit, bergamot. We’ve also got some cardamom,
a little bit of orange blossom and then all of a sudden, we get into the spice. For me,
that black pepper is great though because it helps to tame the lavender.
Then, we get into that base. You’ve got a really nice musk with a bit of wood in there,
just guaiac wood. Really clean really simple just a nice spring fragrance.
And, gents, I know you got an opinion, so let me hear it down in the description. Agree?
Disagree? What fragrances did I miss? Where did I nail it? Let me know down below.
But, what if you want something a little bit darker, something for the evening? Check out
Bentley’s For Men Black Edition. If you’re familiar with this brand, you know that there
are a lot of great options from this house and they’re very high quality for the price.
But, in my opinion, the For Men Black Edition, this is a perfect spring fragrance because
of that violet note. It’s very strong, got a little bit of pepper in there as well right
up there at the top. It’s got a little bit of citrus as well.
This right here with the pepper and with the florals, and then it’s got that strong wood
base. This is a classic spring fragrance with the powdery feel, just a really nice, yeah,
solid spring choice. Other notes are going to be tangerine, nutmeg,
papyrus, patchouli, tonka bean, musk, bit of tobacco and incense.
[0:04:57] Now, gents, if you’ve ever want a fragrance
that smelt so damn good that you just kept applying it, all of a sudden, you’re choking
people out? Yeah, you know what I’m talking about. Do me a favor, gents, and smash that
like button to feed the algorithm. Seriously, it can happen to the best of us.
And, adding to that last fragrance, if you like dark spring fragrances perfect for the
evening, check out both of these. We have Issey Miyake’s Nuit d’Issey. This one
right here leather mixed in with a bit of citrus. I absolutely love it.
And this one over here, if you want a little bit of spice a little bit of pepper at the
same time, not an overpowering oriental and just a clean smelling fragrance, check out
Bvlgari’s Man in Black. On a lot of this list, you’re going to find
Versace’s Dylan Blue. And I can’t argue, this is an incredibly versatile fragrance,
a beautiful fragrance. But, for my list today, I’m going to go back eight years and I’m
going to pull up another Versace. The fragrance I’m talking about is 2008’s
Versace Pour Homme. This is a citrus spicy aromatic fragrance with a bit of a floral
note. What I love is it has a bit of rose and it’s
not overpowering. A lot of guys stay away from rose, but in this fragrance, you can
pull it off. Other notes are going to be lemon, bergamot,
neroli, hyacinth, cedar, clary sage, geranium, tonka bean, musk, and amber.
For the spring, this is what they call a dumb reach or fragrance you can wear any place,
any day, anywhere, and you cannot go wrong with this fragrance right here.
So, what video to watch next? How about how to wear cologne correctly? So many guys mess
this up. They either over spray or they under spray. They spray in the wrong places. They
use those mist clouds. Yes, do not do that. In this video, I will explain exactly how
you should apply your fragrance. And what you want to look for is you don’t make that
bad, bad mistake of spraying way too much and choking people out. Yeah.
In this video, guys, I explain it all. Go check it out.
