How to Pick Cologne/ Cologne Recos

IMO, I would recommend against the everyday and premium colognes.

Instead, if you are going to go 2 bottles, try for a summer scent and a winter scent. Or you could just swap back & forth whenever you want. I prefer sweet and fresh scents for summer, and woodsy and strong scents for winter. You could budget accordingly.

$20-30 (Coolwater/Nautica Blue - Summer, Curve/Joop - Winter)
$40-50 (Aqua di Gio/Tommy/A-Men - Summer, CK Be/Hugo - Winter)
$60-70 (Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue/Issey Miyake - Summer, Armani Code/Polo Double Black/Unforgivable/John Varvatos - Winter)
above this you have some esoteric stuff like Creed, Hermes, Tom Ford, and the price can get pretty incredible
