Created by Louis Vuitton's Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, this new lineup of men's fragrances is inspired by the evolution of men's fashion. The scents include the cocoa-laden Nouveau Monde, the grassy Sur La Route, the woody Orage, the sharp, grapefruit and ginger-tinged L'Immesité, and the sandalwood-based Au Hasard. All five fragrances will go on sale May 31 and arrive in simple bottles that can be refilled at Louis Vuitton stores.

To call Monocle's editors well traveled would be an understatement. Now they're using those travels as inspiration for the lineup of Comme des Garçons x Monocle Cologne. Produced exclusively for Monocle by Comme des Garçons' perfumer Antoine Maisondieu, each of the three scents represents a particular memory from Monocle's adventures across the globe, like a chilly morning in Kyoto, the sharp smells of Batroun, Lebanon, and ornamental Japanese cedar. Made in France and delivered in 1.7 fl oz bottles.
Given its name, Tom Ford F*cking Fabulous Cologne has quite a lot to live up to. This unisex fragrance rises to the challenge with a base of oriental leather that's complemented by notes of bitter almond oil, tonka bean, clary sage oil, and cashmere. Arrives in a black 50 ml bottle with an overtly explicit label.
Reviving one of the pop art icon's most provocative works, Comme de Garcons x Andy Warhol's You're In is an homage in fragrance form. The original 1967 work consisted of a series of 100 glass Coca-Cola bottles, which Warhol had spray-painted silver, filled with a yellow substance he claimed was toilet water and topped with special lids. Coca-Cola, obviously not pleased with the play on words, soon issued a cease-and-desist letter. This release includes a unisex scent with notes of orange, lime, jasmine, cashmere, and wood, which arrives in one of six different collectible bottles, each inscribed with a famous Warhol quote and boxed in special packaging. A portion of the proceeds from each will go to benefit the Warhol Foundation.
Inspired by its namesake's prevalence in today's modern cities, Comme des Garçons Concrete Cologne is an enticing contradiction. Its concrete bottle is molded to have curved edges, with an off-center metal cap and a box that also mimics the texture of the building material. While the exterior might suggest roughness, the fragrance itself is refined, with a base note of sandalwood mixing with hints of rose and spice.
Never worry about leaky or broken bottles. Made with a high performing wax base rather than a traditional alcohol spray, the Fulton & Roark Captiva Cologne is made to travel. The solid scent is is inspired by its Floridian namesake, packed with notes of green citrus, rockrose, and salt water for a refreshing masculine aroma suited for every season. As part of the Limited Reserve, the first one-thousand colognes arrive packaged in an exclusive gun metal container.

Made for everyone that wants a better bath experience, the Super-Plush Complete Towel Set from Brooklinen is the result of testing textiles for two years. To create the strongest, most absorbent plush towels, Brooklinen looked no further than the inventors of the modern towel — Turkish artisans, mills, and materials. Each towel is crafted with a "Z twist" terry weave and is dense, cozy, and will hold its shape without unraveling for years to come. Available in White, Putty, Smoke, and Graphite neutrals.

The label "intense" might make you think Prada Amber Intense Cologne has even more ingredients than the original Amber on which its based. Instead, it's a removal of fragrances that lends it greater punch. With a base of Somalian myrrh and Italian bergamot orange, it's bold, elegant, and, thanks to top notes of Indonesian patchouli and vanilla from Madagascar, a bit mysterious, as well. Arrives in a simple, handsome black 3.4 oz spray bottle.
As the first new men's fragrance from the French fashion brand in eight years, you'd expect L'Envol De Cartier Cologne to smell great. And it does, with an ambrosia-inspired mix of wood, honey, patchouli, and musk that's both sophisticated and subtle. But it's the bottle that might be its most notable advancement. The scent is held in a bulb that sits inside a outer glass bell, letting the liquid shine like honey, and enabling it to be refilled, unlike most store-bought colognes.
Spray scents don't do well in pockets. Misc. Goods Underhill Solid Cologne does just fine. Well formulated for summer, this mix of rosemary, leather, tobacco, wood, and ale is as masculine as it gets, and is mixed with beeswax and oil for easy application. It comes in a cherry and ox horn case that's easily pocketable, so you can freshen up whenever the moment calls.
Inspired by the aromoas of long road trips and weekends by the lake, Abbott Adventure Cologne embodies the spirit of experience. The collection includes four unique scents, all influenced by classic destinations like Mojave and Sequoia. With notes ranging from tobacco leaf and cedar wood to moss and mint, the fragrances are reminiscent of campfires and a glass of whiskey or a suede bomber. You can buy them all or take them for a test drive with their home try-on kit.
Created as a way to take the scent of the company's best-selling Cypress Fig candle anywhere you go, Apolis Cypress Fig Cologne is a unique scent suitable for any occasion. Beyond the obvious base of cypress wood and sweet fig, the fragrance also mixes in top notes sourced from around the globe, including Italian bergamot, Moroccan lemon verbena, and 20 other natural ingredients. It arrives in a simple, recyclable 100ml glass bottle with a sprayer hidden under the oversized black cap.
Yes, it has a patently ridiculous commercial — directed by Martin Scorsese, no less — but that doesn't make Bleu De Chanel Cologne any less appealing. It has an alluring mix of crisp citrus, sandalwood, labdanum, nutmeg, cedar, pink pepper and other notes to give it a clean, woodsy smell that's ideal for warmer weather. Arrives in a handsome bluish-gray bottle.
Encased in a matte black flask, Creed Green Irish Tweed Cologne is as classic as its packaging. The legendary scent has been a regular on red carpets since making its debut in the '80s. Composed by sixth-generation Master perfumer Olivier Creed, its notes of sandalwood, florentine iris, and french verbena give off a rich woodsy fragrance that'll leave you smelling like Clooney.
Housed in a geometric sculpture designed by Fredrikson Stallard and handcrafted from frosted glass and solid silver, the container alone is enough to tell you that Brioni 70th Anniversary Extrait Intense Cologne is no pedestrian fragrance. Masculine yet sophisticated, it has accords of citrus, boutonniere, and wood, with accents that range from French lavender and golden saffron to sandalwood and Tonka bean. Limited to just 70 pieces worldwide, it arrives in a wooden display box.
Shinola continues to build on its impressive line of timepieces with the Canfield Sport collection. The chronograph series features two movements, one of which is the Detroit-based company's most complex to date — the quartz Argonite 5040.F. This Canfield Sport has three subdials, a dual calendar aperture, a fourth date hand and a long-lasting battery. Built using a top loaded case construction, this timepiece boasts a 45mm stainless steel case with classic coin-edge detailing. The watch also features a black dial, a black ceramic bezel, and a black leather strap. The Canfield Sport reimagines the traditional sports watch and is a worthy addition to any well-curated collection.

A powerful fix of leaves and smoke, Comme Des Garcons Amazinggreen lives up to its name. The natural spray is made from palm tree leaves, jungle leaves, ivy leaves, green pepper, dew, orris roots, coriander seeds, vetiver, white musk, smoke, and something called "Gunpowder Accord", which we imagine smells something like the first few seconds of a civil war-era battle. Arrives in a green bottle with offset sprayer.
There are plenty of times when you're out and about that a quick refresh of your favorite scent would come in handy. Unfortunately, most fragrance bottles aren't very portable. The Mistr Portable Cologne Sprayer solves this problem by letting you take nearly any cologne with you wherever you go and without the need for a bag. The secret is the compact, nearly credit card-sized design that's made from stainless steel. You simply remove the spray cap from your current bottle, pump to fill the Mistr, then use its built-in atomizer anytime you need a little extra smell good.
We love a product with a good story, and Kiehl's Original Musk has a good one. Supposedly formulated for the first time at Kiehl's Apothecary in the 1920s, the scent was found in a tub labeled "Love Oil" in the late '50s, and subsequently reintroduced in 1963. The updated scent leads with notes of bergamot nectar and orange blossom, followed by floral notes of rose, lily, ylang-ylang, and neroli, and finishes with a masculine blend of tonka nut, white patchouli, and musk. Arrives in a 1.7oz spray bottle with fittingly old-school labelling.
Most colognes have abstract names, meant to evoke a feeling rather than describing the smell itself. Not so with Tom Ford Black Orchid. This masculine scent opens with bold notes of black plum and orchid, mixing in patchouli, as well as various fruits, spices, and woods. In addition, it's designed to mingle with your skin's natural chemistry, creating a one-of-a-kind scent that's truly individualized.
As anyone who's ever visited a tannery can tell you, leather has a very distinct, alluring scent. Ralph Lauren Polo Supreme Leather Cologne celebrates this fact by mixing the smell of leather with a blend of spices, resulting in a warm, rich scent that's an ideal accompaniment to the cool air and bright colors of fall. Exclusive to Bloomingdale's, it comes in a 4.2 oz size and arrives in a fittingly dark brown bottle.
You may or may not be a gentleman. But you can certainly smell like one with Givenchy Gentlemen Only Intense. Tracing its lineage all the way to the original Givenchy Gentleman from 1974, this modern scent offers notes of peppercorn, tonka bean, leather, and hide, creating a rich fragrance that's distinctly masculine. In other words, fit for a gentleman.
There's something distinctly masculine about the smell of fuel, oil, tires, and exhaust that you'll only find at the race track. At least, until now. Sunoco Burnt Rubber Cologne aims to bring the scent of the track to you, mixing in just enough sweet and spicy notes to keep the more race-specific scents from overpowering the proceedings. Unfortunately, they're not actually selling it — although they are giving it away to a few lucky Facebook followers.
Once you realize the liquid inside that handsome cylinder of knurled metal is cologne, your expectations are immediately raised. Fortunately, Dunhill Icon Cologne meets them handily, with a masculine scent worthy of such an elegant vessel. It starts with notes of bergamot, orange blossom, and black pepper, features a heart of Provençal lavender, cardamom, sage, and juniper, and finishes with a base of vetiver, smoky oud wood, oakmoss, and leather, making it ideal for everything from casual dinners to formal events.
"Smell legendary" doesn't sound like a very good fragrance slogan, so it's probably a good thing we weren't consulted on the advertising campaign for Mont Blanc Legend Cologne. It offers notes of lavender, pineapple leaf, verbena, apple, rose, sandalwood, tonka, bergamot, oakmoss, and geranium, imbuing it with a clean, masculine scent. Arrives in a handsome black and chrome bottle that will look right at home in your storied bathroom.
You keep what goes in your body as natural as possible. So why not keep what goes on it natural, as well? Ursa Major Willoughby Cologne is a new all-natural, 95% organic fragrance that aims to keep you smelling fresh without synthetic ingredients. At its core is a blend of fourteen pure essential oils offering notes of citrus, spice, woods, mint, ginger, and bergamot, all more subtle than the scent you'd get from traditional cologne. And it comes in a 10mL glass rollerball bottle, so you just roll it on where you need it as you need it — no more wayward sprays.
Normally if you come home smelling like a jazz club, your significant other is going to wonder what you were up to. But with a couple sprays from Maison Martin Margiela Replica Jazz Club Cologne, you can smell like that before you even leave the house. This intriguing fragrance brings together notes of musk, vanilla, tonka bean, vetiver, and tobacco leaves in a masculine mix that evokes all the mystique and ambiance of a hidden club. As an added bonus, the bottle looks great, inspired by classic apothecary jars with bold letting, a cotton label, and a rope-wrapped pump.
The bottle is very classy but rather plain; the fragrance inside is anything but. Arriving in a black and polished silver container, Montblanc Legend Cologne is here to add a touch of intrigue to your personal scent. This masculine fragrance features clean, energetic top notes, a woodsy, slightly floral center, and a dry finish that includes notes of both tonka beans and sandalwood. Smell legendary.
Thanks to Jay-Z, we know that rocking Tom Ford is the stylish thing to do — and now you can rock it even when you're in shorts and flip-flops with Tom Ford Wood & Tobacco Cologne. These premium scents are decidedly masculine, with the wood offering notes of rosewood, cardamom, oud wood, sandalwood, vetiver, tonka bean and amber, and the tobacco mixing oud wood resin with smoking aromatic and idealized Arabic tobacco. For an extra dose of manliness, splash yourself with a little bourbon. On second thought, don't — just drink it instead.
If you're looking for a distinct, yet subtle fragrance that you can wear just about every day, you should give Givenchy Gentlemen Only ($60) a try. It features top notes of birch leaf, green mandarin, nutmeg, and pink pepper, giving it an invigorating freshness that's immediately apparent. Middle notes of cedar, patchouli, and vetiver lend notes of woodiness and masculinity, hence the moniker. With base notes that combine animal-like musk scents and frankincense essential oil for a sweet, warm aroma, this fragrance has a manly smell that lingers without being overwhelming.
