There comes times in life where you really want to step it up.
You want to smell refined.
You want to smell elegant.
You want to smell classy.
These bubblegum sweet fragrances are great and all, and I do enjoy them, but there's
a time and a place for those.
Sometimes you want to put those away.
You want to reach for something that's going to have you smelling like a gentleman.
It's going to have you smelling like a guy with class and a guy with style.
Whether you're going to a new job that you just got or a job interview or a situation
where you want to be taken more seriously, you have to choose the right fragrance for
that.
Like I said, those bubblegum fragrances, they're great, but they're not going to have you smelling
classy.
They're not going to have you smelling like a guy who wants to be taken seriously.
With these 10 fragrances I'm going to be talking about today, these are going to have you smelling
like the man.
They're going to have you smelling like a high-class gentleman, and honestly, if you
walk into anywhere, a restaurant, a job, or something like that, people are going to think
that you're the boss.
People are going to think that you own the place just because you're wearing one of these
10 fragrances.
Yes, they really are that good, and yes, they really do smell that classy and that high-end.
I think with that out of the way, we should get into this because you don't want to miss
these.
First fragrance up, Eau Sauvage Parfum by Christian Dior.
This one had to make it in this list.
This one is the 2017 version, which is the version that you will get if you purchase
this from discounters.
I will have all of these fragrances linked down below.
This one I believe is out of stock pretty much everywhere, so if it's in stock, it will
be linked.
If not, I will link to where it normally is.
Just smelling it in the air smells incredible.
You get this nice zesty citrus opening with some vetiver, some other woods, a little bit
of a spiciness in there as well.
When you smell this one, you will know that this one is a classic fragrance.
This one is mature.
This one is a gentleman's scent.
For some of you guys out there, maybe a bit too much for you.
Even for me, you would think that it would be too much because I'm pretty young, but
honestly, I still love the scent so much that I really don't care.
If you are someone who is in college or something like that, you may want to look elsewhere.
Would I wear this to college if I went to college?
No, I probably wouldn't.
I would choose something else because this is probably going to have you smelling even
more mature than the professor, which maybe that's what you want, but I would choose something
different.
Nonetheless, if you have an office job, if you have a job where you just want to smell
high-end and luxurious, or maybe you're somewhat of an older guy and you want something that
reflects that, go for this one 100%.
Moving up next here, we have Chanel Platinum Egoist.
This fragrance had to be in the list and honestly, it's probably going to be one of my personal
favorites.
What I love so much about this fragrance is it's just so easy to wear.
It's a clean, soapy, masculine fragrance that just smells so high quality and yes, I can't
talk about it without having to spray it.
Just smelling that just makes me feel like I'm elevated by like 10 points instantly.
I feel like if I walk into anywhere right now, I feel like I'm going to be the boss.
Even if I'm not the boss, I feel like it.
That's what this fragrance does and you'll find that it does have this mature quality,
this underlying mature high-end smell, but it still does have this clean, soapy smell
which makes it versatile.
It makes it easy to wear and this one is one that can be pulled off by a wider age range.
Again, college, yeah, you could probably do it and this one would work pretty well, but
also if you are a bit older as well, this one is going to have you covered and again,
in any situation for the most part, but especially if you want to smell clean, refined, gentleman,
all of that good stuff, this one's going to do it for you and it's going to do it incredibly
well.
Highly recommend you get your nose on this one.
This one is incredible.
Moving up next here, we've got Tom Ford Fougere Dargent.
Of course, I couldn't put this video together without including this one as well.
You will notice that fougeres are going to be the trend here in this video.
That's just because that's kind of what I think of when I think of smelling like a refined
gentleman.
I think of these classic fougere scents and really, that's probably going to be your best
bet in most cases, but fougere argent, just such an amazing scent.
I do recommend you get this one because I have heard word on the street, this one's
getting discontinued, so I would get it while you can.
Link down below to FragranceNet, $150, $160 for a 50ml bottle, scoop it up.
Moving up next here, we have Zaharoff Signature Pour Homme.
This one is fantastic as well.
It's another fougere scent, but what makes this one different is the fact that it's got
a bit of a smoky and warm, sweet touch in the dry down.
In the opening, you do get basically that straight up fougere, barbershop, classic type
of smell, but as soon as you hit the dry down, it takes a change on you.
With that incense note, with some of those other sweeter notes in there, which gives
it a nice, nice touch, quite a bit of depth to it.
It's a really nice change and different take on those classic scents.
I really enjoy this scent.
It's a great one.
George is a great guy as well, so I do recommend you check this one out.
If you like fougere scents, you're going to love this one, basically guaranteed.
This one's going to have you smelling like a refined, classy guy.
Moving up next here, we have Prada Lome Intense.
You could put the original in here, but I'm taking it up a notch with Prada Lome Intense,
leather, patchouli, iris.
It smells fantastic.
It's that Prada Lome DNA, just intense.
It's really the best way to put it.
This is really a great flanker.
It's literally just an intense version of the original for the most part, which is really
well done.
It's got good performance, it's got great quality, and it's just got this upscale type
of smell to it.
The thing is, is with these iris fragrances, because it is the note of iris, it does make
it smell a little bit less masculine.
What we're looking for in this video is masculine, strong fragrances.
With the intense version here, the fact that it does amp up that leather, that patchouli,
the iris is still there, but those other notes are brought up.
It gives it more of a masculine, strong touch, which is why I wanted to include it in this
video.
This is going to be maybe for a bit more of your modern guy.
Say you are that college student.
Say you are that younger guy who wants to be classy, mature, masculine, but you also
want a modern touch.
I would say go with this one because, again, a lot of the fragrances in this video are
fougeres, which are a bit more old-school smelling.
This is going to be for your younger college guy, even high school if you wanted to, just
younger guy in your early, mid-20s who wants to have that classic masculine, be taken seriously
type of smell, but with a modern, young twist on it in a way.
This is what I recommend for you guys, Prada Lome Intense.
Don't sleep on this one.
Give it a try.
If you like the original Prada Lome, you're basically guaranteed to like this one.
If you haven't tried any of the Prada Lome fragrances, I would say get your nose on them.
Get started into it.
You could start out with this one if you wanted to.
It's really up to you, but I would try them.
This one would be great.
Moving up next here, we have Chanel Allure Homme Sport.
What I will tell you right off the bat is you can substitute Versace Pour Homme into
this spot.
I'm putting Chanel Allure Homme Sport mainly because, one, I do prefer this one over Versace
Pour Homme, and two, because I actually swapped out my bottle of Versace Pour Homme a few
years back.
I plan on getting that one back soon because I do miss it.
Ultimately, I did let go of the Versace because I enjoy this one more, but this one and Versace
Pour Homme are pretty close together, and honestly, they both are incredible, incredible
scents.
I love this DNA so, so much.
Even to this day, both of these have been around for a while.
It still smells incredible.
It's a citrusy, creamy, slightly floral type of DNA that just smells amazing.
The Versace is going to be a bit more bright, a bit more fresh, I guess, in a type of way.
The Chanel still does have that brightness.
It's got that orange.
It's got that citrus, but with some more toga beans, some aldehydes.
This one's a little bit more creamy, has a little bit more depth.
Both are great.
Again, I already told you my preference, but it's up to you whether or not you want to
justify the price, and I'll be straight up honest with you.
For most people out there, I would just say go for Versace Pour Homme, 40 bucks, 100 mil
versus over $100 for a 100 mil of this one.
The answer's kind of right there in the pricing, so that's just kind of my advice for you.
I don't want to steer you the wrong way.
I would just go for the Versace nine times out of 10, unless you have tried them both
and you know you like the Chanel better, then you can go that route and it would still 100%
be worth it.
I'm not saying that this one isn't worth the price because it is, especially for me because
I love it, but it's not going to be worth the price for everyone.
Regardless of which one you go with, both are fantastic.
Both are going to have you smelling so, so good.
It's such a tried and proven DNA.
It's fresh.
It's mass pleasing.
It's high quality.
You can wear these fragrances anywhere, anytime, especially if you want to smell like a refined
gentleman.
Again, these are not fougere type scents.
These are going to be a bit more modern.
These are, again, for the younger guys, college, high school, early, mid 20s, and even older
than that.
It doesn't matter.
These are going to be a little bit more wearable, I guess, and a little bit more modern.
Up next here, we have Acqua Di Gio Profumo.
Had to put this guy in the list.
I just had to do it.
You can't go wrong with this fragrance.
It's so high end.
It's so classy.
It's so masculine and refined smelling.
This is your night out summer fragrance.
This is your dressed up formal fragrance for really any time of the year.
This is just a fragrance that can do so many things.
If you want to smell like a guy who just has everything together, you have it all going
on, you're successful, and all this good stuff, I would recommend you check this one out.
Great, great scent with fantastic performance, great quality.
It's just one that you have to have in your collection.
Moving up next here, a fragrance that, again, I had to put in this list.
This one is, of course, Aventus.
You know it.
It had to be in here.
It's Aventus.
It just works.
If you want to be taken seriously, if you want to smell like luxury, if you want to
smell wealthy, this is the one you want to go with, or at least one of them that you
want to go with.
It just works.
It's talked about so often because it just works.
Again, for me, it's one of those fragrances that I just genuinely love the smell of.
You hear the stories about compliments all the time, compliments this, compliments that.
Yes, this is a compliment getter, but also for me, it's just a confidence booster.
It's something that genuinely makes me happy when I wear it and when I smell it.
That's my main motivation behind wearing a scent.
At this point, I don't care if I get compliments.
I don't care if people smell me.
I love wearing these fragrances because they smell good.
Aventus is one of those fragrances that just smells so good for me.
I love it.
I get incredible performance from this one.
It's one that will 100% have people taking you seriously.
Next here, we have another mature scent, Zaroporom Eau de Toilette, just the original Zaroporom.
Another barbershop fougere scent.
This is one where people are going to catch this one in the air and they're going to automatically
assume you're the boss, you're the guy in charge, that sort of thing.
This is what that DNA does.
It's a classic.
Most of you have smelled this.
Most of you probably wear this back in the day and still do.
It's a classic scent that smells incredible.
A great fougere.
Really nice stuff here, Zaroporom.
Finally, the last fragrance in this list, we have Terre d'Hermes Eau de Toilette.
This is the dirty, earthy orange and all this and all that, whatever people like to say.
It's a great, great scent.
Perfect for the office.
Perfect for about anything.
It's masculine.
It's demanding.
It's strong.
It's one that will capture people's attention because of its strength.
It's kind of piercing.
It's got that sharp citrus and woodiness going on that, again, will have people turning their
heads.
People are going to think you're in charge.
People are going to think you know what you're doing and you have everything together.
It's just that type of fragrance.
It smells great.
I did a video comparing all of the Terre d'Hermes fragrances a while back.
You can check that video out.
It's going to help you decide which one you'd want to purchase.
Anyway, Terre d'Hermes Eau de Toilette, great, great scent here.
This one's going to have you smelling refined.
So guys, that's it for me.
That was 10 fragrances that are going to have you smelling like a refined gentleman.
Again, make sure you let me know down in the comments which 10 fragrances you would choose.
Of course, all these will be linked down below to where you can easily find them.
That's going to do it for me, guys.
I'll see you tomorrow night with another one.
Take care.
