Anyone being enjoying the rain lately? Nope, me neither. Rainy season in Nigeria especially Lagos is usually filled with trials and tribulations. If you know you know, so that got me thinking:
What are the best men’s fragrances for rainy days?
I have taken a look at some scents and handpicked nine that are just perfect for the rainy season and on days when the weather is humid or still warm.
When it comes to smelling good in the rain, these are the fragrances I have come up with. I think the best qualities and notes for picking a scent are:
Citrus
Aquatic
Green
Light spicy
Slightly woody
That said, here are the top 9 perfumes for when it's drench season.
Bvlgari MAN Wood Essence

This particular fragrance has a green citrus type of smell, you can imagine how well Bvlgari Man Wood Essence would work in the rain, and it sure does. It’s a really pleasant scent, green as mentioned, and lasts for a long time during the day.
Bvlgari MAN

A perfect all rounder! The original Bvlgari Man works well in the rain, as well as every other situation. It has got a lightly aquatic feel to it while being a perfect mix of spicy and woody. It works during the day and night.
BOSS Bottled Unlimited

Another one! Boss Bottled Unlimited is a fantastic green fragrance. A blend of freshness and greenery. Perfect for work hours in the office. It’s not so strong and doesn’t have the best durability, but smells great for the few hours it lasts.
Tom Ford Grey Vetiver

A bit of an all rounder with dry and powdery notes but still very inviting. Tom Ford Grey Vetiver really does flourish in the rain. In need of a splash of vetiver in the rain? Then this fragrance is for you.
Creed Aventus

All hail the KING! Creed Aventus is considered the king of men’s fragrances and of course an absolute favourite for drench season. The blend of spice, woods, citrus, and everything else is finely balanced. Recommended for evening wear, but in the right conditions, can be worn during the day. It also has a nice longevity period.
Prada L’Homme EDT

Prada’s trademark for men’s fragrance is amber, and Prada L'Homme delivered on that kind of scent. It can be worn during the day or evening and the purple scented notes are great under wet conditions. It’s an elegant cologne, nice and light which will get you noticed, powerful but not overbearing. Just perfect!
Armani Acqua Di Gio

A classic through and through. This fragrance has a fresh citrus kind of scent which is absolutely made for day time. If it so happen that the clouds roll in and it looks like it’s going to rain, not to worry, Armani Acqua Di Gio will compliment the weather nicely.
