We’re about midway through August, which means that crisp breezes are on their way and leaves will soon be changing. Autumn is readily approaching, and while summer certainly has been fun, it’s hard not to get excited for one of the best times of year for fashion.
But not only is the fall a great time to dress well – it’s also a prime time of year to smell your best, too! Autumnal fragrances are some of the most masculine, sophisticated, and downright sexy scents a guy can experiment with.
So, in anticipation of Fall 2024, we’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite autumnal-adjacent fragrances for men. Read on to find out more and possibly discover your new favorite fragrance!
The Best Everyday Fall Fragrance: Terre d'Hermes by Hermès
A longtime favorite since its inception in 2006, Terre d’Hermès is a mineral, woody fragrance that expertly combines the strengthful scent of cedar with the radiance of grapefruit, and adds a vibrant touch of flint.
Made in France, this option makes for a brilliant fall scent due its woody, earthy notes. We recommend the eau de toilette if you’re looking for something subtle, though the stronger parfum version is an excellent choice as well.
The Best Budget Fall Fragrance: Obsession for Men by Calvin Klein
Believe it or not, you can still smell pretty damn great on a budget. The best colognes and fragrances tend to be northward of $100, and often way, way more, but Obsession for Men by Calvin Klein has been around since 1986 and has long held a seat at the table.
It offers exciting top notes of mandarin and bergamot, soothing middle notes of lavender myrrh, sage, and spices, and end notes of amber, musk, sandalwood, vetiver, and patchouli.
Today, you can find this classic scent for around $35 on Amazon (1.7Oz). For that price, it’s a pretty complex fragrance, and an absolutely perfect budget buy for the fall season.
The Best Professional Fall Fragrance: ‘REPLICA' Autumn Vibes by Maison Margiela
REPLICA fragrances distinctively capture moments and feelings by distilling them down into the perfect scent, and Autumn Vibes is a prime example.
Earthy and woody at its core, this fragrance conjures up imagery of a brisk, peaceful autumn walk, with notes of red berries, cardamom, cedarwood, and moss making subtle yet pleasant appearances.
The name says it all really, but this works well as a scent for everyday and professional settings due to its unobtrusive nature and familiar scent family. At the same time, it’s sure to garner a compliment or two, which is exactly what you want.
The Best Understated Fall Fragrance: Silver Birch & Lavender Cologne by Jo Malone London
If you’re interested in something a bit more subtle but no less exciting than other options on this list, the Silver Birch & Lavender Cologne by Jo Malone London works for multiple seasons, but still feels right at home for autumn with its silver birch base notes.
On the nose, there are top notes of fresh grapefruit, and a middle note of English lavender. Together with the cool woody scent of silver birch at the base, the final profile is one that’s surprisingly complex, yet natural and versatile.
The Best Long-Lasting Fall Fragrance: Akro Dark by Olivier Cresp
Described by many as “intoxicating” and “decadent,” Akro Dark is a moody and strong fragrance that’s sure to leave an impression on any who encounter it, including you, the wearer.
Praised for its strength and longevity, you can expect this one to last a while, and enjoy notes of dark chocolate, with a top note of cocoa powder. The middle notes consist of cinnamon bark and hazelnut, with a comforting and familiar base of vanilla to keep things grounded.
This is definitely one to have on your radar.
The Best Romantic Fall Fragrance: ‘REPLICA’ Jazz Club by Maison Margiela
This one is popular for a reason. Hardly a generic fragrance list has been written without the eventual mention of Jazz Club by Maison Margiela’s ‘REPLICA’ line, but it’s simply too good not to bring up, even then.
Warm and spicy, Jazz Club envelops the wearer in a seductive, sophisticated scent that’s sure to impress your evening date. A woody scent at its core, you can also expect to experience key notes of pink pepper, rum absolute, and tobacco leaf absolute.
Oh, and lots of vanilla undertones. But just the right amount. Take it from us, this one’s a no-fail pick.
The Best Refreshing Fall Fragrance: La Forêt Eau de Parfum by Nette
La Forêt Eau de Parfum by Nette works on many levels, but is a surprisingly refreshing scent that manages to merge autumnal vibes with something a bit crisper.
This one contains a mix of fresh and modern notes including sandalwood, cedarwood, and healingwood, with touches of bergamot and moss. It’s also a fragrance that’s easy to layer, though certainly stands tall on its own.
The Best “Dark Academia” Fall Fragrance: Eau Duelle by Diptyque Paris
Looking to capture that exciting, broody feeling one associates with one of autumn’s peak aesthetics – dark academia? Eau Duelle by Diptyque Paris perfectly hits the nail on the head.
With chocolatey, spicy, and woody essences, this pick practically picks you up and puts you down in an atmospheric New England campus full of mystique.
Expect notes of vanilla, pink peppercorn, and calamus, with a sweet and sugary tone that keeps things from getting too broody.
The Best Mysterious Fall Fragrance: Myrrhe Mystère Eau de Parfum by Tom Ford
We promise we didn’t just pick this one because the name is rather on-the-nose, it truly is an exceptional fragrance! After all, this is Tom Ford we’re talking about.
Both seductive and mystical, this fragrance unlocks a rather mysterious aura due to its iconic perfumery duo of myrrh and ultra-vanille accord, and also includes key notes of sandalwood. It’s a slightly spicy woody scent that’s sure to capture attention when you enter a room, and will keep people guessing the whole night long.
The Best Premium Fall Fragrance: Royal Oud by Creed
Sometimes you just want to know you’re getting some of the best you can buy. The House of Creed’s collection of fragrances have long received praise and reverence, and their fall-adjacent scents pack quite the punch.
We like Royal Oud for its sophisticated blend of aromas, with top notes of lemon, pinkberries, and bergamot. Its middle notes contain cedar, galbanum, and angelica root, while its base is composed of sandalwood, oud, and tonkin musk.
Made in France, this fragrance captures the autumnal spirit in ways that few other scents truly can, and offers a complex scent profile that is damn near guaranteed to make heads turn.
The Best Premium Fall Fragrance – Honorable Mention: Green Irish Tweed by Creed
To be honest, it was a bit of a toss-up between these to options from The House of Creed, and while Royal Oud slightly won out, we still wanted to bring up Green Irish Tweed as a strong alternative.
A somewhat more countryside-inspired fragrance, you can expect top notes of lemon, verbena from India, and peppermint, as well as middle notes of violet leaves. The base features florentine iris, sandalwood, and ambergris, and it blends these to outstanding effect.
This woody and fresh scent is a great pick for the fall, balancing the old and the new masterfully.
