Want To Try A New Fragrance But Not Sure Which One?

If you’re anything like us then you’ll have spent approximately nine minutes of your life selecting an after shave. This will be the fragrance that you picked when you were in your late teens or early 20s and have stuck with ever since.

While you’re evaluating everything else about yourself in the build up to the wedding we thought you might like to have a go at picking a new fragrance. We asked smell maestro (we’ve not checked but something suggests he’s not usually referred to like that) Michael Donovan to give us a whiff of some new and intriguing fragrances for you to choose from. Helpfully, he’s split them into three distinct categories to help you narrow down your new smell…

1) Cool & Classic – If timeless and elegant suits your style

Creed Green Irish Tweed

Green Irish Tweed by Creed – this fragrance is worn by the coolest guys on the planet including George Clooney. It features herbs, woods, fresh greenleaves and mint. The Cary Grant of gentlemen’s scent. £75/30ml from Selfridges

Flacon EDT Encre Noire_Lalique

Encre Noire( Black Ink) by Lalique – this is a woody chypre with tons of Haitian vetiver. Add a little musk and cyprus and you have a scent that is potent, sexy and very, very smooth. £41/50 ml from Harrods

Caron Pour Un Homme de Caron

Pour Un Homme de Caron – from Caron. This was the first fragrance ever created specifically for men (1934). This is lavender based – not old ladies lavender, but cool lavender from the South of France. Smells like driving through Provence in a sports car with the roof down. Tom Ford is a fan. £45/50ml from Fortnum & Mason
