About this video

Chrome Extreme, Missoni Pour Homme, Encre Noire and Dunhill Icon are a few of the fragrances in this list of affordable designer options. There’s room here for less obvious picks too, including Mercedes-Benz Infinite Spicy, Bentley Absolute and John Varvatos XX Artisan.

If you already have a few fresh fragrances, think about which one you’d actually reach for instead of buying another by habit. Missoni Pour Homme is worth comparing with Wave for its ginger-and-woods direction. Encre Noire goes somewhere else entirely with cypress and vetiver; its comparison with À L’Extrême is linked below.
