Top 5 Best Perfume and Cologne for Men

Looking for the best perfume for men for winter in this cold season to rock people’s socks off? Formsly.com is here to help you out with the selection process.  Winter fragrances need to have a “warm” smell to them!  With this in mind, the notes you should be looking for in an AWESOME winter cologne are amber, vanilla, spice and wood. If there was just ONE note out of these four that would be the most important, I would STRONGLY recommend Creed.

This is a warm, rich and earthy smell that produces a faint tickle in the back of the nose. A site that I use most often to help find some of the best winter colognes is Fragrantica.com. Here you can search their database of colognes by the notes within a cologne and which ones are best for each season.  Don’t worry though, we did the work for you by finding these top 10 colognes for the winter season in 2013.  Click the link on the title of the fragrance if you want to try it!

NOTE – The HQ Score is a rating from Best Men’s Cologne that take in thousands of cologne reviews and compile them into one easy to see score so you can easily see how great or horrible a cologne is. The top cologne in the world has a rating of 102 and the worst cologne is sadly at a 0… If you’re curious, we have a list of the top 100 colognes of all-time!
