As the days grow shorter, men’s fragrances defined by spices, woods, tobacco and gourmand warmth come into their own. Althaïr by Parfums de Marly combines Bourbon vanilla with cardamom and lavender. Amber, praline and guaiac wood give it an elegant depth that is particularly suited to golden autumn days. Gueule de Bois Extrait de Parfum by Versatile Paris blends pepper, pink berries and cinnamon with rum, incense, amber and sandalwood. Its spicy, smoky character is distinctive and warm without becoming heavy. Café Tabac by Aedes de Venustas recalls the legendary New York café of the 1990s. Smoky tobacco, dried fruits and spices meet vanilla, cocoa and Peru balsam. The result is a sensual fragrance full of warmth, depth and urban elegance.
