Men's Cologne: What Is It Like?

Cologne is the most “light” product in perfumery. Its classic version usually contains no more than 5% aromatic components and about 70-80% alcohol.

The cologne is great for the warmer months as it is subtle yet rich. It can be periodically applied to the body or clothing throughout the day.

Composition of Men’s Cologne

Its main ingredients are citrus fruits (lemon, tangerine, orange, grapefruit).

The creators of modern colognes continue to honor this tradition, but instead of classic citruses, they sometimes add exotic ones, for example, lime or carambola.
