Bumpity Bump. Just wanted to add this in lieu of the times and the fact that the god forsaken season of Winter is damn near over.
Fragrances for Spring/Summer
Here's some suggestions from your favorite cologneface  All the prices are online prices.. because they're MUCH cheaper than retail.
Canali Summer Night
Notes: Mandarin, Bergamot, Coriander, Cardamom, Nutmeg, Apple, Pineapple, Melon, Orange Flowers, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley, Leather, Musk, Vetiver, Tonka Bean, Oak, Musk, Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Iris
Price : $20 - $35
A beautiful citrus opening leads into a floral heart and transitions into a smooth and warm base.
Prada - Infusion d'Homme
Notes: Mandarin Orange, Neroli, Clean Notes, Iris, Galbanum, Cedar, Vetiver, Benzoin, Frankincense, Powdery Notes
Price: 35$ - 75$
A very bright and sparkly opening laden with neroli fades into a soapy, floral, and squeaky clean heart which falls into a powdery drydown.
Kenzo - Power
Notes: Bergamot, Coriander, Cardamom, Rose, Jasmine, Freesia, Tolu balsam, Cedar, Labdanum
Price: $25 - $50
A spicy and citric top gives way to a surprisingly realistic floral heart and dries down to a woody amber.
Gucci - Pour Homme II
Notes: Bergamot, Violet Leaves, Pimento, Black Tea, Cinnamon, Tobacco Leaves, Musk, Myrrh, Olive Wood
Price: $30 - $45
A slightly sweet tea opening leads to a warm soft and spicy heart which fades into a smooth musky finish.
Comptoir Sud Pacifique - Aqua Motu
Notes: Helychrisum, Marine Notes, Lily of the Valley, Warm Sand, Kelp
Price: $20 - $50
In essence, the beach in a bottle. If marine fragrances pique your interest, then you should also try the much easier to find, and much more tame Bulgari Aqua.
Beth Terry Creative Universe - Mare
Notes: Sea salt, Avocado, Ginger Lily
Price: $72, or a sample for $3 (Luckyscent)
Much like Aqua Motu, Mare is a simplistic marine fragrance that smells like bottled shoreline mist.
Versace - Versace Man Eau FraƮche
Notes: Lemon, Rosewood, Carambola, Cedar Leaves, Tarragon, Sage, Musk, Amber, Sycamore.
Price: $20 - $40
A bright citric aquatic with a slightly warm and woody drydown for people who find marine fragrances a tad too extreme.
