What is the best Spring Aroma?

As stated earlier, spring is the transition to warmer weather and new life ‘springing’ forth.   Look for top notes that feel “green” like  fir, green leaf, and melon.   Also look for fragrance like lavender, ginger lily, Rose, or other spring flowers.  For the undertone you can’t go wrong with moss or patchouli to give a hint of a wet and woodsy vibe like spring time in the forest.

Which type of fragrances should I choose for Spring?

Lighter fragrances are usually best for spring.     Stick with a  Eau de Cologne, Eau Fraiche or Eau de Toilette, that latter will give you the longest lasting scene.   Typically you would save the stronger Eau de Parfum or Perfume for fall and winter.

  • Fiery; Intense; Provocative
  • The pure essence of masculinity
  • Between love and madness lies obsession
  • Eau De Toilette Spray Men

Calvin Klein’s Obsession pour homme is a classic scent.   We had difficulty choosing between this men’s fragrance and Calvin Klein’s Eternity  .     Both are fantastic scents for spring,  we ended up choosing this one because of the bright fragrance of mandarin and lavender paired with the “wet” earthy tones of patchouli.

If your looking for a traditional spring season essence, you can’t go wrong with Obsession.

What are people saying about Obsession?

“Not musky and overly masculine. I get compliments more often than I would expect over the aroma…”

“This has got to be the best smelling colognes I have ever encountered EVER.”

“My favorite, a clean scent, women love it…”

Burberry makes some terrific colognes for men..   Touch, is no exception.   As the peppery top notes fade, the base note of vetiver gives a hint of uncut grass on a warm day perfect for that spring feeling.   The price is a little more for this product but we feel it is worth it has it.   If you’re looking for a less expensive product you may want to lean towards some of the less expensive options on our list.

This  spicy, peppery top notes of this cologne exceeds the others on this list.  So if you want a spring time fragrance with a punch, this may be the best choice for you.
