Smells Like Husband Material

We don’t gatekeep around here — especially not when it comes to cologne. If you’ve ever asked, “What are you wearing?” after a hug or “Why do you smell like a rich man in Italy?” — this post is for you (or for the man in your life who needs a signature scent).

We put together a mix of colognes we’ve actually worn, been gifted, or secretly sniffed on other people. From fresh and clean to warm and spicy, these are scents that feel confident, approachable, and yes… a little husband-coded.

Some of them are designer classics (hello, Acqua di Giò) and others are cult favorites like Santal 33, but every one of them passes the “come closer” test.

Whether you’re looking for a gift, a fragrance refresh, or just something that makes your man smell like he finally figured his life out — we’ve got you covered.

What do you want him to smell like this summer — clean and crisp, or rich and spicy?
