you need to go into a store (like sephora) and test out all the fragrances. its what i do whenever i have a desire for a new cologne. my recommendation is in the polo / ralph lauren line and thats as much as ill say, but figure out what scent you want to excude, not whatever is popular/easy.
Ok you dont know me and shit but listen to me I have over 45 colognes bought many high quality nich colognes like from XERJOFF, Lelabo, etc. (300+$per cologne). I aslo have multiple cheaper ones the best ones are: Turathi by afnan +30$(it is a clone of Tyger bulgary $ 400) fresh perfect for summer but the projectivity of it is incredible. 2. maybe liquid brun its 30$ smells=Haltane parfums de marly(290$) Research here: Youtube-@GentsScents (Cant type any more because of the typing limit)
it’s for a guy I’m talking to. Halloween is coming up and if things continue to go well, I’ll like to get him a boo basket. So I don’t know his scent yet. His cologne now is light, I’m not sure if he wears any. He doesn’t smell bad, but no distinct cologne smell. But I’ll add that to my list ✍️
