Top 15 Designer Colognes: A Pick from Each Major Brand

If you're working through the big designer names, it helps to start with the kind of fragrance you actually want. This collection moves from Acqua di Gio Parfum and Dylan Blue to Dior Homme Intense, Tobacco Oud and Le Male Elixir, so there are several different reasons to choose a bottle.

Dior Homme Intense and Prada L'Homme Intense make an interesting iris comparison; The One EDP and La Nuit de L'Homme EDT give you a different evening decision. Those head-to-head guides are linked below. With fifteen options, finding the one that suits your routine matters more than collecting one from every brand.
