What is the most influential of our five senses? It’s not what we see or feel, it’s what we smell. That’s right, the power of smell is all around us. In fact, 75% of our emotions are generated by what we smell and studies have shown that the most physically attractive quality in a man is their smell.

It’s science, once a smell is embedded in our brain, visual cues cause it to be resurrected and experienced. That’s why if you’re a man and want to make a strong first impression, whether it be at work or on a date, you should invest in great-smelling cologne. Now, I’m sure you're aware that there are many different scents and price points when it comes to cologne so to help you choose a distinct cologne that will make you smell great and stand out from other men, we put together a list of the 7 best colognes for gentlemen.
