When it comes to fragrance, the beauty world usually divides things into two categories. Perfumes and colognes with the former targeted to women and the latter designed for men. But we refuse to think of things with such narrow constraints. Anyone can spray on perfume or cologne and smell amazing.
Thankfully, some brands agree and are creating genderless aromas. Sure, you may still see them identified as a perfume or a cologne, but the fragrances have more of a universal appeal. Although, there are still instances where cologne is mainly marketed to men. So in an effort to expand your horizons, we set out to uncover the best colognes that smell great on everyone.
Obviously, since it's fall and about to be winter, we honed in on more seasonal scents. So our roundup includes several warm, woody aromas. There are exceptions to every rule. We found a few that are actually seasonless.
Prices can vary just like with perfumes. Our top picks range from $89 to $425. Of course, a lot depends on size. Another similarity with so-called perfumes? Cologne bottles are just as striking and demand a place of honor on your vanity or your dresser.
Scroll down to discover the best-smelling colognes around.
