Spritz Against the Season
Spring is here -- but that doesn't mean you have to stick with light colognes or eau de grass. We love this sophisticated, heady bouquet of jasmine, tuberose, and spicy patchouli.

Valentino Valentina Assoluto
Eau de parfum -- $88 for 1.7oz -- chypre
Sport a Man's Scent
Forget labels and judge notes by how they smell on your skin. This Prada creation (with spearmint, sage, and soft lavender) leaves a clean, fresh aroma.

Wear Two at Once
Spray pulse points with one perfume, then another. Hint: Pairs that share common notes play well together (these Cavalli and Molton Brown juices feature sweet tiare flower).
