What are the criteria for spring fragrances for men? First, it has to be sparkling and fresh. Second, it should evoke a feeling of lightness. Third, the crisp clean scent should last for hours. All these criteria should be (ideally) present sans the punch in the nose component of synthetic accords.

Truth is, there are a number of spring fragrances for men. Selecting the perfect fragrance to match your chemistry is a challenge to both your nose and budget. A little splurge won’t hurt, right? So, let’s begin with the all-time spring favorites.

 

Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gio for Men

How can you not love Acqua di Gio? This fragrance is described as the scent of freedom. It mimics the sweet and salty notes of the sea. The warmth of the Mediterranean sun builds up a citrusy top note. A burst of tarty sweetness engages you from start to finish.

It’s one of the best-selling fragrances that was a hit in the 90s. Men loved its no-nonsense clean freshness and women just love this scent on their man.  Acqua di Gio may be synonymous with ubiquity but it’s one of the well-mannered scents from Armani so definitely a thumbs up!

Calvin Klein Eternity for Men

Some people call it the quintessential  college scent. Others tag it as a classic. Whatever you call Calvin Klein Eternity for Men, it’s one fragrance you’ll never forget. The comfortable scent began an era of multi-faceted fragrances. It’s the kind of freshness you can put on regardless of the season.  The citrus-spice top and the woody base fascinates, excites and most of all, it lasts.


Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Pour Homme

Musky. Fresh. Spicy. Manly. Sexy. Light Blue Pour Homme is similar to Tommy and Hugo Boss when it comes to simplicity. The opening is an explosion of citrus accords then peters out with a subtle musky base. This is not in any way in the same vein as the women’s version.  Some say that its borderline banal and average but a great everyday fragrance on the overall.

If you can’t get enough of these sensational spring scents, there’s more at discount perfume online retailer, scentiments.com.

Review of Armani Code perfume for women

Armani Code is a fresh, sultry fragrance bursting with a healthy dose of orange-ginger notes that captivate and tickle the scent palate. Introduced in the spring of 2006, this lovely feminine scent has just the right amount of oomph that seduces with its unique floral-oriental combination. Armani Code radiant opening features zesty blood orange, ginger spice and pear sorbet. The heart, with all its subtlety and sweetness, brings out an air of fragrant florals of sambac jasmine. The base fades into a delicious trail of vanilla, lavender honey and precious woods complex.

Oranges fills the head notes giving the scent its citrusy aroma but after a while the orange blossoms fades and smoothly levels off with vanilla and honey. It’s powdery on the dry down but in an elegant kind of way. Armani Code is a borderline gourmand-floral scent. The scrumptious, milk-chocolate aroma is attributed to the warm honey’ed vanilla musk accords.

The distinct sweetness is reminiscent of Hugo Boss Deep Red, a similar fragrance that also falls under this fragrance category. The oriental base, on the other hand, is similar to the oriental sweetness of Sacre Bleu sans the maturity and smoky incense dry down. One perfume reviewer quipped,” I think that Code was an attempt to be all things to all people, and instead it is a little too sweet for mature women and a little too oriental for young women.” In addition, another perfume reviewer thought that despite Armani Code’s dignified feminine scent the fragrance typifies the usual mainstream floral based perfume: it could get pretty boring with constant use. Further, he commented, “Armani Code doesn’t offer adventure, but it smells lovely and pure. If this is Armani’s code, then I am all about him. Also, it is a much better creation then 90% of what the company has put out all these years. At least, it does not imitate anything out there - not all that much at the very least.”Armani Code doesn’t offer adventure, but it smells lovely and pure.
