The days of perfumes vs aftershaves are a little behind us. While we still tend to categorise fragrances as masculine or feminine, when it comes to signature scents, we can all wear whatever we want! Which is great news if you prefer a musky, woody note other a fruity or floral. This Valentine’s Day, I’ve picked six of my favourite classic men’s scents that I think are perfect for all genders. Whether you’re gifting or looking for a new dark and stormy fragrance for yourself, give these ones a try.
