The Best Men’s Fragrances in the Sales, from Le Labo to Tom Ford

Aesop's collection of Othertopia scents is designed to transport you to somewhere altogether more scenic than your grey-walled office block (or grey-walled WFH set-up.)

True to form, each of the four fragrances smells vaguely familiar, yet remains strangely curious. Miraceti is the almost-aquatic one, with amber and spices conjuring images of a wind-battered ship. Weird, but it works.

The signature scent of London, Santal 33 is by no means a unique choice, However, some things are iconic for good reason, and this modern ode to the American West, with its iris-sweetened sandalwood trail, is one of them.

Citrussy yet slightly musky, this is a solid starter scent. Cedar, white musk and lemon are well-trodden notes, but the tomato leaf in the opener leaves you with an unexpected herbal twist.

Tom Ford's Ombre Leather is the scent everyone should wear: softer and more floral than you're likely expecting, it's one that works day or night, whatever the occasion. Think: jet-black, supple, expensive leather, not that musty biker jacket at the back of your wardrobe.

With the lord of leather trousers as the face of its signature scent, Yves Saint Laurent is really leaning into the rockstar vibe of its big fashion brother. Whether Lenny Kravitz really wears this zingy, mineral blend of citrus and lavender is up for debate, but we're very happy to.

Brazil's beloved Granado creates scents that speak to those who want to smell fresh and crisp, whatever the weather. Housed in a 100ml bottle, they also speak to those who don't want to spend more than their mortgage on a nice fragrance.

Dior's weightiest signature scent is a sure-fire crowd-pleaser. That's not to denigrate its quality though: the blend of cedarwood and crisp vetiver is both accomplished and timeless.

Not an ode to America's most divisive former overlord, this energetic offering from Hugo Boss is a wholly crowd-pleasing, non-threatening summer scent.

D.S & Durga’s heavyweight cologne is far from a traditional vetiver scent. With clove and rum bringing it firmly out of predictable ‘green’ territory, it’s a memorable choice for day or night.

A weighty option from the finer end of the niche spectrum, Tom Daxon's bestseller blends big, heavy notes of vetiver and sandalwood with softer, steely iris.

There's a wild list of notes in Hugo Boss' after-hours scent, but it's the juicy citrus and rich woods that shine through. A solid choice for winter nights.

Not just a go-to for flawless summer ready-to-wear, Missoni also makes a reliable hot-weather cologne. The brand's hallmark scent is a woody-aromatic pepped up with a spicy ginger note.

Now we've all calmed down about Adam Driver morphing into a centaur, we're ready to appreciate the genuinely good scent of Burberry's Hero. Zingy bergamot blends with a crisp twang of juniper and black pepper, with lightweight cedar in the base. A modern, fresh way to wear woods.

A no-brainer for summer, Calvin Klein's most youthful scent is really quite nice cocktail of citrussy bergamot and almost-bitter green tea. The ultimate crowd-pleaser.

With heady patchouli and cedarwood grounding the signature citrus energy, this is a Mediterranean spritz that'll work whatever the weather.

With creative director Glenn Martens now at the helm (and y2k mania showing no signs of slowing) Diesel has clawed its way back into the conversation. With the revival of stonewashed denim and obnoxious belt buckles comes Only The Brave: the brand's signature lemon-and-leather spritz.

First launched in the 1980s, Versace's original cologne is a big, bold woody chypre with a bunch of bitter, botanical citrus notes in the opener and a remarkably smooth drydown. Best worn with a Hawaiian shirt.

The first consciously unisex addition to the Calvin Klein fragrance family, CK Everyone is surprisingly accomplished. More than a play-it-safe scent, it combines crisp citrus with a gentle tea note to create an uplifting choice for those who like their fragrance light.

Bulgari's Man Wood Essence may sound aggressively macho, but the blend of coriander, citrus and cedar is refreshingly light.
