• Gifts for: THE SPORTY MAN

  Try: MARINE fragrances that are reminiscent of the scent of soft sea breezes. Early water notes from the 1990s capture the ozonic aroma of wet air after a thunderstorm. Today, water notes are used as an accent to enliven florals, orientals and woody scents.

• Gifts for: THE SENSITIVE MAN

  Try: SOFT FLORALS, where the marriage of sparkling aldehydes and delicate flowers creates a family of soft, often powdery, abstract florals, muted by the powdery accents of iris and vanilla to create a fragrance that is both soft and flowery.

  Fragrances for Him:
  JOVAN MUSK FOR MEN ‘Classic, sensuous, masculine’
  TABAC ORIGINAL BY MAURER & WIRTZ ‘Tangy, fresh, aromatic’
  DIOR HOMME ‘Classic, contemporary, luxurious’

• Gifts for: THE MODERN MAN

  Try: SOFT ORIENTALS, which use incense to add sensual overtones to fragrant flowers, spices and amber. The base notes of a modern soft oriental are not as sweet or heavy as a true oriental, resulting in a distinctly softer scent.

  Fragrances for Him:
  CK ONE ‘Clean, refreshing, light’
  JIL SANDER COLOGNE FOR MEN ‘Luxurious, sophisticated, refined’
  OLD SPICE ‘Complex, definitive, classic’
  ROYAL DELIGHT BY CREED ‘The fragrance of romance and escape’

• Gifts for: THE ALPHA-MALE

  Try: ORIENTAL fragrances, the exotic rulers of fragrance. Sensual and often heavy, oriental scents blend resins, flowers, vanillas and musks with refreshing citrus, green or fruity top notes.

  Fragrances for Him:
  HABIT ROUGE BY GUERLAIN ‘Sensual, warm, elegant’
  ED HARDY MEN BY ED HARDY ‘Seductive, enticing, alluring’
  LAGERFELD FOR MEN BY LAGERFFELD ‘Sparkling, masculine, sensual’

• Gifts for: THE ARTISTIC MAN

  Try: WOODY-ORIENTAL blends, with a tantalizing liaison of rich oriental notes with potent scents of patchouli and sandalwood. Flowers and spices play second string to dominant sandalwood or patchouli notes, balanced by a rich oriental influence.

  JOOP! HOMME ‘Spicy freshness, oriental, woody’
  ZINO DAVIDOFF BY DAVIDOFF ‘Erogenous yet fresh, spontaneous’

• Gifts for: THE MANLY MAN

  Try: DRY WOODS or “LEATHER” fragrances, where mossy fragrances take on a drier character through the addition of cedar, tobacco and burnt wood notes. Fresh citrus notes play an important role in most dry woods fragrances, lightening their deep, animalistic heart notes.

  Fragrances for Him:
  DECLARATION BY CARTIER ‘Fresh, spicy, woody’
  GUCCI BY GUCCI POUR HOMME ‘Iconic, charismatic, timeless’
  PRADA MEN ‘Fresh, sensual, leathery’
  BVLGARI BLACK ‘Metropolitan, classical, supreme’
