Summer has flown by and suddenly you’re back among falling leaves, woolen sweaters, and pumpkin spice lattes. Time to adjust your scent too, because what smelled fresh and summery in July suddenly feels... well, a bit out of place in October. Recognize that? Then it’s time for a new fragrance, one that fits autumn.

But how do you choose among all those warm, spicy, or woody perfumes? Which scent gives you that cozy feeling without smelling like you’ve dived into a fireplace? We’ve got you. This is your guide to the best men’s fragrances this fall.

 

Why a different scent in autumn?

Your skin is often a bit drier in autumn, causing perfume to last less long. And honestly: fresh citrus notes don’t always fit that autumn sweater-weather vibe. In fall, you want something that gives you a warm, comfortable feeling. Think of:

• Woody scents - like sandalwood or cedar
• Spicy notes - like cinnamon, nutmeg, or pepper
• Warm accents - like amber, tonka bean, or leather
  
  

These scents immediately give a cozy, masculine vibe, perfect for dark days, cozy evenings, and... autumn romance, maybe?

 

How to choose a fall fragrance that suits you?

Autumn scents suit you if you:

• Love warmth and depth in a scent
• Want to wrap yourself in something that lingers long
• Like to make a statement (without exaggerating)
• Want to radiate comfort, style, and a touch of mystery

• Spray on warm spots: like your chest, neck, or wrists
• Optionally spray on clothing (be careful with delicate fabrics!)
• Layer your fragrance: with matching body products if you really want to smell long-lasting
