The Best Fall/Winter Colognes To Wear Now

Upgrade your scent game.

Misc. Goods Co.

We’re willing to bet you’re slowly but surely building out your perfect cold-weather wardrobe — and lifestyle — be it with a pair of the best fall chukka boots or with new bourbon for your bar cart. Your fall suiting and flannel shirts, too, are also making their way back into your daily rotation. Shouldn’t your scent follow much the same path.

There are certainly classic men’s colognes you can reliably wear most any time of year, but the best men’s colognes for fall and winter embrace the season in all its glory. Bonfire smoke lingers in the air, leaves crunch underfoot and yes, the best cold-weather colognes echo those same notes, be it tobacco, oak, leather or a bit of all three.

There’s a wider variety of stylish seasonal scents on the market than ever before, including solid cologne delivered in retro containers, as well as handsome cologne bottles to spruce up your bathroom counter.

The next time you lace up your boots and layer up with one of the best henley shirts, make sure your cologne is similarly on-point for brisk temperatures.

Alfred Lane Solid Bravado Cologne

Bespoke Post

What is it about this shockingly affordable solid cologne that we love so much? Maybe it’s the way the textured scent lingers and cuts through heavier odors, or maybe it’s the retro-minded presentation of this old-school, refined tine from the modern man’s grooming brand, Alfred Lane. $22

Misc. Goods Co. Solid Cologne
