[Yonjuro]

Hi all,

Can I please get some recommendations for a cologne suitable for a hot summer in Perth Western Australia?

Something quite masculine please.

Penhaligon's Extract of Limes. Great, citrusy hot summer scent.

 

[Dharion]

D.R. Harris Arlington. Great, citrusy hot summer scent.

Tiffany & Co. Sport is my Summer go-to. Started wearing in on a trip to Hawaii - it's always reminded me of summer...

 

[WhosYerBob]

Any of the lighter citrus scents would work well.

My favorite is Ogallala Bay Rum Limes & Peppercorns.

I would recommend Uomo from Lorenzo Villoresi-Great citrus opening with a really nice woody/mossy drydown-I find it works all year long but I think it is especially great in really warm weather-I also think it is unquestionably masculine as per your requirement-

 

[Wingnut]

Another, lower-cost alternative you might want to check out is good ol' Bowling Green by Geoffrey Beene. Also a citrus bomb to start out with a woodsy/mossy drydown, and (if you can get your hands on some Down Under) pretty high quality for dirt cheap.

Most scents labelled "Neroli" should fit the bill.

Everyone and their brother wears this but...Aqua de Gio by Armani is a good summer scent. Also light blue by D&G. Also recommend CK summer which reminds me of tan lotion and sun.

I also find myself using Mugler cologne alot in the summer its a clean light fresh scent.

I'm going to throw out something that's not yellow, how about something green like Guerlain's Vetiver? or something soapy or floral?

Davidoff Cool Water - fresh & not too overpowering

Eau Sauvage and Terre d'Hermes are respectively classic and modern citrusy fragrances that work well in warm weather.

Good choices. Almost anything that is citrus based works well.

Thanks Austin. I would like to hear about more citrus based EdT's to choose from that have a little more longevity than they usually do.

Besides Terre d'Hermes, Taylors Victorian Limes, Crown Perfumery Crown Spiced Limes and Trumpers GFT. Floris made a very nice and lasting Limes but it is no longer in production. One of my favorites Hermes Eau D'Orange Verte is very nice but does not last long.

+1. Excellent choice.

What about Agua Lavanda Puig? I use it all the time in the summer. Smells fantastic and it has a great bottle too.
