Let me be honest: it is terrible there! The cologne department smells and looks like the chemist shop of the flower store. You step into the room with a charming smile but leave with the look of a confused grandpa. Definitely, this is not what we need! 😅
You need your own signature scent! Forget about the same smells which all the other men wear in the club. The point is that you should leave an impression behind. In other words, a signature scent is your invisible business card!
You do not need popular and expensive perfumes created by designers and trendy in the moment. They are made in order to make a strong impression but fade away as fast as your motivation on Monday. You need something more structured.
Go to one of the niche perfume shops such as Le Labo or Byredo and test some of their scents (it is better than buying them). Try to apply different samples on each wrist and wear it for a whole day. The key point here is chemistry!
To be totally honest with you: cheap colognes smell like rubbing alcohol. The point is that you should focus on the high-quality ingredients such as oud or sandalwood. For example, one spray of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille will win five sprays of everything else from the drugstore.
Just wait for an hour after applying new scent and check whether you like it. The point is that first of all top notes evaporate pretty quick and only base notes stay there. That is why if you like it in the evening – go for it.
Forget about compliments and think about confidence. Once you choose the right scent, your morning routine will become easier and more effective.
