Romantic Colognes

Traditionally, colognes are worn to inspire passion and heighten attraction. For this reason, especially if it is an older blend, you can expect most colognes to be deeply romantic and sensual, with a heavier fragrance revolving around musk, oud, and warm spices. That said, modern perfume trends have seen a rise in popularity of cologne scents that range from smooth and sophisticated to vibrant, energetic, and fun. As a result, we’re seeing a trend of more and more colognes with citrus, aquatic or green notes. Scents like these are giving the olfactory industry a run for its money, and opening up more creative avenues than ever for men to share and express themselves.

A perfect men’s romantic cologne ignites a sexy mood filled with longing and desire. We’ve compiled a short list of our favorite colognes that serve as inspiration for our creations. Use these on your next date night to create an intimate, enchanting atmosphere.

Pressed for time? Forget research; just head to your nearest store and pick up a Dior Sauvage bottle. Say what you want, but this is, and always will be, the de facto standard of cologne for men. It has everything you’ll ever need in a seductive scent. Smooth, spicy, and fresh, this ambroxan delight is formed with delightful bergamot and pepper near the top, followed by patchouli, cedar, vetiver, and amber notes.

Also, don’t miss out on Creed’s best-selling fragrance, Creed Aventus. Stylishly fruity with a hint of spice, this scent will leave a lasting impression on any date night – particularly once its distinct smoky pineapple and black currant notes kick in. Aventus further unfolds with a heart of velvety rose and jasmine floral, ending with sandalwood, oakmoss, and vanilla undertones.

Finally, for a bottled-up blend of irresistible charisma, look to Yves Saint Laurent L’Homme. Featuring low notes of amber, cedar and tonka bean, YSL’s iconic woody/oriental cologne comes with a distinctly warm and mellow scent that’s bound to please any present company.
