8 Summer-friendly Fragrances for Men

It can be easy to get stuck in a rut when it comes to aftershave - You know the drill, you compliment a certain fragrance and it becomes all you ever receive for birthdays and Christmas' for the rest of your life. Ok, you might have a hundred bottles of Boss Orange to wade your way through but really, as the seasons change so should your aftershave, so leave it on the stock pile for now and take a look at some of these great summery aromas.

Hermès, Terre d’Hermès 

One of the best selling colognes of the season - A masculine, woody aroma with hints of grapefruit and green notes. The Terre d'Hermes bottle design is also clinical and minimal - something we admire here at MenswearStyle.
