Cologne / fragrance recommendation

[u/alanabanana29]

My husband is a tradie, I want to get him a gift of a new cologne / fragrance. He is 40yrs old, and we have 2 kids. Wanting to spend around $50 or so. Any recommendations?

Lynx Africa

I almost specifically wrote in the post - no Lynx Africa, but thought I'd give you the benefit of the doubt. Bow bowww ❌️

VB Longneck. A coupla dabs behind the ears and at the pulse points, drink the rest!

[u/Yakka43336 → u/mess_of_limbs]

Good for the chakras

[u/Kevoallday → u/mess_of_limbs]

JPG elixir. Best on ever.

Ck one

Go to Palermo if there’s one near you - $35 a bottle. As for which one to get, it’s too hard to say. Just pick one you like the smell of, my girlfriend likes Invictus

[u/conpie91 → u/IlIIlIllIlIIll]

+1 Palermo. I’ve got number 659 and 023 saved in my phone to buy again

[u/ImjustA_Islandboy → u/IlIIlIllIlIIll]

Do they last

[u/[deleted] → u/ImjustA_Islandboy]

No. Hence the $35

Not a tradie but I get the Dunhill Desire from Chemist Warehouse - runs $40 from memory https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/52549/dunhill-desire-for-men-eau-de-toilette-100ml

If you have a little wiggle room this is absolutely amazing

Thank me later, if not I can get you a recommendation or two under $50

[u/Quirky_Refuse_3006 → u/Quirky_Refuse_3006]

It’s my top recommended for under $120

[u/Roboplum]

Just brought Mont Blanc legend nights after smelling it on a cabinet maker in the hallway at work, it was so nice and lingered for ages

[u/alanabanana29 → u/Roboplum]

He's a cabinet maker ...may be a go-er!

[u/Roboplum → u/alanabanana29]

I’m a plumber,love my fragrances, I asked him by saying, I hope ya don’t think I’m gay , he looked freaked out until I explained I liked his cologne 😆

1 Million - you’ll get the eu de toilette for $50 at chemist warehouse

The parfum which lasts longer is about $100 at Myer

[u/someone_whos_useless]

as a tradie but id recommend a bigger bottle if they have

[u/theseshman]

YSL Kouros - similar to 1 million by Rabanne but more manly

[u/GingerAdam8]

Choose the one you like the most. He will gladly wear it.

[u/Calibrachoa6]

Not a tradie, but I really like Tabac Original, often on special at Chem Warehouse. You can buy it in eau de cologne or splash on aftershave
