When it’s time to choose a new aftershave, will you go for an old favourite or opt for something out of the ordinary? Perhaps you’re happy to let your girlfriend choose. Even buying aftershave as a gift has its challenges as the selection of aftershaves for men continues to grow, so here’s a quick overview of some of the best aftershaves out there.
The bestseller: 1 Million by Paco Rabanne
A great all-rounder, this very popular product offers a long-lasting, seductive scent perfect for nights out. Spicy overtones combine with indulgent base notes of leather and amber. This is likely to be just as popular with the woman in your life.
The sporty one: Gucci Sport pour Homme
The deep musky fragrances aren’t for everyone and they can be pretty overpowering. A lighter alternative is Gucci’s offering for sporty types, which is also available as an aftershave balm, deodorant and aftershave lotion. The scent is refreshing, fresh and decidedly masculine.
The superstar fragrance: Intimately Beckham
Celebrity-endorsed fragrances can be hit or miss, but Beckham’s is certainly one of the better ones. An alluring, spicy, woody fragrance that is perfect for everyday use. This affordable scent has received great reviews from users and can also be bought as a balm and lotion.
One of the coolest: Only the Brave by Diesel
One of the top sellers since its release in 2010, this fragrance is perfect for a night out. Offering manly undertones of leather and cedarwood, effortlessly combined with light, zesty lemon, mandarin and coriander, Only the Brave is an exciting scent. Extra man points for the masculine bottle which will look great on your shelf!
Affordable, every day scents also continue to be popular, such as Davidoff’s Cool Water, and the ever-present Brut. Whatever your taste, whether you’re buying for yourself or as a gift, there really is something for everyone.
