Check out Versace Pour Homme Eau de Toilette Natural Spray for a fresh take on classic masculine scents. According to SPY, the citrus top notes, sage and hyacinth floral heart, and amber and musk base notes in this cologne subtly scream "confident Mediterranean man."

This is, without a doubt, the priciest fragrance available. You can spend $70 on a 1.7-ounce bottle of designer cologne, or you can spend $55 on a 1-ounce bottle if you only need to use it for special occasions.

2. Drakkar Noir by Guy Laroche Eau De Toilette Spray

Drakkar Noir is an aromatic fougere for men created by Guy Laroche. In 1982, Drakkar Noir made its debut. Pierre Wargnye, a renowned nose, created this fragrance. Notes include lavender, lemon, bergamot, mint, rosemary, lemon verbena, basil, artemisia, and wormwood as top notes; juniper, coriander, cinnamon, wormwood, angelica, carnation, and jasmine as middle notes; and oakmoss, leather, fir, pine tree needles, sandlewood, vetiver, patchouli, cedar, amber, and resins as base notes.

You and your significant other may find the fragrance of Drakkar Noir to be overpowering, even though we dig it. This is especially true if you have a habit of applying too much.

3. Nautica Blue Eau De Toilette Spray for Men

Nautica Blue Eau De Toilette Spray for Men isn't as good as Drakkar Noir, but if you have to choose between the two, it's hard to beat the price. With top notes of green leaves, apple, and lotus, a heart of jasmine and water lily, and base notes of musk, sandalwood, and cedarwood, this fragrant aquatic scent was created to evoke the adventurous man on land and sea.

You get what you paid for, though, so keep that in mind. You may have to reapply the scent more often than you'd like because it doesn't linger long and isn't really strong to begin with. Nautica Blue remains one of the greatest inexpensive colognes due to its low cost per spray.

4. Hawthorne Work and Play Colognes

Work cologne starts off with a wood accord and is layered with bitter oranges, pear, and lavender of vetiver. An "accord" is a custom fragrance base that can serve as the foundation for a wide variety of scents. This fragrance smells quite businesslike, that much is certain. Fresh aromas of bitter citrus and pear only linger for the first half an hour before giving way to a more permanent woodsy aroma.

It has a pleasant, strong aroma that reminds me of the kind of business attire appropriate for the office. Is it completely mind-blowing? No. But it's pretty darn good, and it lasts at least 8 hours.

5. Dollar Shave Club Blueprint 203 Cologne

This writer recommends the Dollar Shave Club Blueprint 203 because it is "fresh and crisp" and "his go-to perfume for any occasion that necessitates something fancier than jeans." This is one of the best affordable colognes for men who want to scent masculine without going overboard with woodsy or leathery accords; it features a blend of sandalwood, grassy vetiver, golden musk, almond-like tonka bean, sage, and cedarwood.

Value is a negative aspect. Spending $50 for 1.7 ounces (50 mL) of fragrance seems excessive. (Well, a buck a mL isn't exactly inexpensive.) And unless you firehose yourself in it, the scent won't last more than a few hours. Regardless, I bought it on a whim since I figured "an adult dude like me should always have a good fragrance" and I'm completely satisfied with my decision.

6. Calvin Klein Everyone

Calvin Klein's CK EVERYONE is a fresh, green, citrusy fragrance that embraces the limitless potential of individuality.

The fragrance has many facets, making it a versatile choice for both sexes. This new unisex fragrance by Calvin Klein is the brand's first 'clean'* fragrance; it's vegan, manufactured from naturally sourced alcohol, and infused with elements derived from natural sources, carrying on the history of the original CK ONE. The organic orange oil, blue tea accord, and cedarwood create a rich, energizing fragrance.

As a nod to traditional Calvin Klein Underwear, the glass bottle, which is recyclable after the pump is removed, comes with a reusable elastic branding band. While the $55 price tag for a 1.6-ounce bottle puts it above the rest of the selections here, we felt we couldn't omit it.

7. Pi By Givenchy For Men

Men's Pi by Givenchy More than 2,500 Amazon customers gave the Eau De Toilette Spray a perfect five-star rating, making it one of the highest-rated perfumes we identified. And it's easy to see why. For a modest price for 3.3 ounces of luxury-level cologne, you may get a long-lasting, woodsy, masculine aroma made from rosemary, basil, tarragon, neroli, and herbs.

One customer said it was the "greatest smelling, inexpensive cologne out there," but don't take our word for it.

9. Fulton & Roark Tybee Solid Cologne

Solid colognes may be the most cost-effective option (and the most convenient) if you're seeking for a low-priced fragrance. We think Fulton & Roark Tybee Solid Cologne is the best option for those looking for a more refined solid cologne. The Tybee cologne, with its scent reminiscent of the clean ocean, is ideal for the warmer months. The top notes consist of amber and musk, while the middle and base notes are composed of rosewood and cedarwood.

Since there are only 0.2 ounces in a tin of solid cologne, the dollar-per-ounce test doesn't fully apply. Fulton & Roark claims it would take a daily user four months to finish the entire tin, making it one among the best cheap colognes under $50 in our opinion. In addition, solid cologne prevents waste because all of it is absorbed by the skin.

10. Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Pour Homme Eau De Toilette

I know that Dolce Men's Light Blue has its detractors, but to them I say, "Not so Fast." Light Blue is a refreshing fragrance that is easy on the nose and sure to garner admiring comments. Light Blue smells and tastes like it does in the bottle, with hints of aquatic, citrus, and pepper. The final result is a pleasant musky evergreen aroma. Way to go, Dolce...

Today, while wearing this and browsing for new pieces, I was asked about the scent. The potential for light blue to wow is there. It can be worn year-round and to a wide variety of events.

Creed — Spice & Wood: Ultra-Luxe Fragrance for Every Gentleman

Top-shelf EDP, or the most concentrated and potent form of perfume known as Eau de Parfum, does not come cheap. As only the finest materials and most skilled perfumers go into making these scent marvels, it would be rude to pay anything less than their asking price.

Moreover, if you're going to spend your hard-earned cash, you might as well do so wisely. For that, you'll need a rundown of the most outstanding designer scents, the ones that are guaranteed to get people talking for all the proper reasons.

At $545, Creed's Spice & Wood lives up to its name. Center notes of vetiver, patchouli, cloves, and pimento are supported by cedarwood, oakmoss, and Tonkin musk (after opening with crisp lemon and bergamot). Everything about this premium infusion (and the rest of Creed's offerings) is done by hand, from measurements to macerations. It lasts a long time without being too heavy, and both the bottle and the fragrance are impressive.
