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 Fraîche

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.

The Canali sounds intriguing. Of course, anything that has "Summer Night" in the title is going to pique my interest.

Yeah I LOVE the name and bottle.

He was onto something! It's kind of a funny coincidence because Aquatics were HUGE in the 90s and that's when they were really at their peak.
