Spring colognes for men are a time when the air is light and the sun is starting to beat down on our bodies that have been in hibernation for the past few months in the winter.

As we shed our winter wear we must also shed our winter fragrances and colognes as the start of a new season also means a change in the way we smell.

Winter colognes tend to be me more concentrated with woody and musky notes of leather, coffee, bergamot, musk, cedar or pine while a shift in the weather also means a shift in the cologne and notes that we wear.

Spring colognes are neither heavy nor exotic scents, but are fragrances that make you feel fresh, young and alive no matter what age you are. For women flower fragrances are most often associated with spring as spring flowers are in bloom but men’s cologne tend to be more reserved on the floral notes and the floral components are combined with sharp, crisp and fruity notes that signal an awakening from hibernation.
