Giorgio Armani Acqua di Giò Pour Homme is an eau de toilette for men inspired by the Mediterranean: the sea, the sun, and freshness. Armani frames it with citrus, giving it a fresh and aquatic character. It is available in 50 ml or 100 ml bottles.

What it smells like

• Top notes: marine notes and bergamot, like a cooling wave upon the first spray.
• Heart notes: jasmine, cedarwood, and rosemary, reminiscent of the Mediterranean landscape.
• Base notes: white musk and patchouli, the masculine element that lingers on the skin.

Armani says that Acqua di Giò eau de toilette is the beginning of the entire line and its original signature.

How to apply it

1. Spray onto clean, dry skin after showering.
2. Choose the neck, chest, and wrists.
3. Hold the bottle a short distance from the skin so that the fragrance spreads evenly.
4. Let it dry on its own without rubbing the area.
5. As it is a fresh eau de toilette, you can reapply with another spray later in the day if you feel the need.

2. Aim for the neck, collarbone and the inside of the wrists.

What it smells like

• Main notes: clary sage essence, a black salt and black vanilla accord.

Issey Miyake does not divide the fragrance into levels, but rather names these three ingredients. Sage provides the aromatic part, black salt gives the marine facet, and black vanilla adds warmth. The brand describes it as "a super eau de toilette": tumultuous, powerful, intense. It is the successor to L'Eau Majeure d'Issey, the line that reinvented, says Issey Miyake, the codes of aquatic men's fragrances.

1. Spray on clean, dry skin.
2. Choose the neck and wrists, not clothes.

Dior Sauvage Eau de Toilette is a fragrance for men inspired by vast, wild spaces. Dior describes it as fresh, citrusy, and woody: a burst of citrus anchored by ambroxan, elemi resin, and woods. It is the original and lightest interpretation in the Sauvage collection.

What it smells like

Dior names two key ingredients without dividing them into levels:

• Main notes: Calabrian bergamot and ambroxan.

Dior's chosen bergamot is succulent and fruity, with slightly peppery facets. Sichuan pepper gives it an extra kick of spice. Ambroxan brings woody and marine notes, like driftwood bleached by the sun.

When to wear it

Dior says it is easy to wear day after day. It is clean enough for the office and bold enough for nights out, from morning to evening.

How to apply it

1. Apply it after a shower, to clean, moisturized skin.
2. Spray it on your neck and chest, or on the inside of your wrists.
3. Hold the bottle away from your skin so the fragrance can spread evenly.
4. Do not rub after spraying. Let the bergamot open up on its own.
5. Two sprays are enough for an ordinary day. For evening, you can add one more.

JOOP! Jump is an eau de toilette for men, which JOOP! dedicates to men who dare to break away from convention. The brand describes it as refined yet unconventional, masculine and sensual. The bottle contains 100 ml.

What it smells like

Like any fragrance, it has three stages. The first is the shortest, the last lingers on the skin:

• Top notes: citrus and grapefruit.
• Heart notes: a splash of frozen vodka, the note JOOP! calls extravagant.
• Base notes: sweet tonka beans.

It starts fresh and tart, goes through a cool sensation, and ends warm and slightly sweet.

How to apply it

1. Spray on clean, dry skin after a shower.
2. Aim for the neck and chest, where the skin is warmer.
3. Hold the bottle at a small distance so the fragrance doesn't pool in one spot.
4. Do not rub the skin. Grapefruit and citrus evaporate faster if you rub them.
5. You can reapply with a spritz at noon if you feel the fragrance has faded.

How to apply it

2. Spray it on your neck and chest. On clothes, the fragrance lasts differently and may leave stains.

Versace Pour Homme is an eau de toilette for men from the aromatic fougère-woody family. Donatella Versace says she looked for an intense and bold fragrance for a confident man. The formula is based on Mediterranean ingredients, and the blue bottle contains 100 ml.

What it smells like

• Top notes: Italian bergamot, neroli, Diamond musk, and bitter orange leaves. These are the Mediterranean accents at the beginning.
• Heart notes: nutmeg, clary sage, and blue iris.
• Base notes: oud wood, mineral amber, and cedarwood, the background that remains on the skin.

Versace describes the heart as a mineral-floral aroma, almost tactile, given by sage and iris. Amber and musk then bring the warm and sensual base. If you want a fresh, but not sporty fragrance, it is a sure classic.

How to apply it

1. Use it after a shower, on well-dried skin.
2. Spray on the neck, chest, or the inside of the wrists.
3. Hold the bottle a few centimeters away so you don't concentrate all the fragrance in one spot.
4. Do not rub the skin after spraying: the citrus top notes will fade faster.
5. Adjust the dosage for the occasion: less at the office, an extra spray for a night out.

Dsquared2 He Wood Rocky Mountain Wood is an eau de toilette for men from the He Wood line by Dsquared2. The box says "Eau de Toilette pour Homme", and the bottle is encased in a wooden frame. You can find it here in a 50 ml bottle.

What it smells like

We tell you honestly what we know. The official Dsquared2 page for this fragrance lists the format and country of manufacture, but not the notes. The box doesn't list them either. We prefer not to promise you notes that Dsquared2 has not published.

How to apply it

1. Apply it to clean, lightly moisturized skin after a shower.
2. Spray it on your chest and the base of your neck, the warmest areas.
3. Do not press the sprayer against your skin. Hold the bottle a little further away so the fragrance can spread.
4. Let it dry on its own without rubbing.
5. Since it is an eau de toilette, you can reapply with a spray in the afternoon.

Paco Rabanne Invictus is the men's eau de toilette that launched the Invictus line. Rabanne describes it as a fresh woody fragrance built around grapefruit, marine accord, and guaiac wood. It comes in 50 ml or 100 ml bottles shaped like silver trophies.

What it smells like

A fragrance evolves on the skin in three stages. The first passes quickly, while the last lingers closest to the skin:

• Top notes: grapefruit, bright and tart.
• Heart notes: a salty, mineral marine accord, like a sea breeze.
• Base notes: guaiac wood, patchouli, and ambergris.

Rabanne presents it as a clash between the freshness of the sea and the warmth of wood. Within the Invictus family, it is the freshest and most versatile option.

When to wear it

The brand recommends it as a daytime fragrance for warm weather, spring and summer. You can wear it for sports, at the office, or every day.

How to apply it

1. Apply it after a shower, to clean, moisturized skin. Moisturized skin holds a fresh fragrance longer.
2. Spray it on your wrists, neck, chest, and behind your ears.
3. Hold the bottle slightly further from your skin so the fragrance falls like a fine mist.
4. Let it settle on your skin on its own. Do not rub.
5. Rabanne says that spraying it on your shirt collar extends its scent. Try it on a hidden area of the fabric first.

Specifications

What else you might need

• Invictus Set with Travel Spray
• Paco Rabanne Pure XS, men's eau de toilette
• Paco Rabanne Paco, 100 ml eau de toilette

ProBeauty Tip. If you wear it in summer, spray it in the morning on skin that is still cool after a shower. The grapefruit is clearer, and the guaiac wood emerges throughout the day without becoming heavy.
