Acqua Di Gio Absolu Eau De Parfum

Be prepared to have women you don’t even know stop and ask what fragrance you are wearing. Not a bad thing, right? Acqua di Gio Absolu is the new iteration of the original Armani fragrance, and it was launched in 2018.

If you can imagine hints of marine and woody tobacco, blended with grapefruit, patchouli and amber you will have it. It is earthy, it’s sensual, it’s sophisticated and it’s totally masculine. Women seem to love it – and it won’t break the bank either.

Creed Royal Oud

Enjoyed and often worn by both men and women, Creed Royal Oud is in the woody, spicy aroma category. It is refined and sophisticated, with a fresh, clear opening and with deeper, incense- like base notes of oud, sandalwood, and Tonkin musk.

With Calabrian lemon, pink berry, Sicilian bergamot, and heart notes of cedar, galbanum, angelica root, if you are not a fan of those slightly lemony-sharp top notes, you will soon come to appreciate its almost creamy, woody, dry fragrance once it settles down on your skin.

Be prepared to pay a typical Creed price tag, though.
