Men's Fragrance Guide

Breakdown of a Winter Fragrnace

Winter fragrances aren't typically meant to be worn during the day, especially in warmer weather. Notes like spices, vanilla, woods, and gourmand/dessert type notes don't associate with the day or warm weather. Like I've mentioned with the heat, these fragrances are designed to be much stronger in order to brave the cold. If you'll be more outside then more sprays might be necessary but indoors limit them to 2-3. So leave sweeter winter scents for date nights because they are loved by women more. These fragrnaces are more suited for evenings or nights out but can be pulled off in extreme cold temperatures in the day. Because of the more limited uses, you won't need that many in your collection and you'll use less of it too. However they're a staple and very necessary during the colder months.
