Winter Fragrance for Men — Warmth and Depth

Winter calls for men's fragrances of a depth and warmth that respond instinctively to the cold — complex orientals, smoky woodys, spiced gourmands or warm leathers that create a reassuring and sophisticated olfactive cocoon. The chemistry of skin changes with temperature: the cold reduces the diffusion of odour molecules, favouring resinous materials and base woody and musky notes that carry better in cold air. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille is perhaps the quintessential masculine winter fragrance — its tobacco-vanilla-spice accord creates immediate warmth and a memorable enveloping sillage. Amouage Interlude Man, with its aromatic complexity of incense-wood-resin, is a choice of absolute sophistication for grey days. Guerlain Habit Rouge, one of the first masculine chypre-orientals, remains after decades of perfectly relevant elegance for winters.
