What is Fragrance All About?
Fragrance isn't just a random splash of good smells that we apply to make a grand entrance at a party. No, it's far more nuanced, layered and personal. Think of fragrances as extended families, each with its own characteristics, emotions and moods.
Just like music genres can make us feel energized, mellow, nostalgic or hyped, these fragrance families can stir up feelings and connections within us. A particular body spray fragrance might bring about a sense of adventure, romance or confidence without even being conscious of it.
These families are the unsung heroes of the scent world, working in the background to create harmony, contrast and personality in each scent. But things start to get even better when we combine fragrances from different families to make distinct scent profiles, creating a more complex overall fragrance. Let’s run through some of the top fragrances to help you find your deodorant body spray match.
Citrus & Fresh Fragrances
Citrus and fresh fragrances are all about boosting energy, ideal if you’re into keeping things crisp, lively and full of zest, leaving you ready to take on the day.
You can wear this type of body spray whenever the occasion demands, great for during the day or for smart formal occasions.

Woody & Earthy Fragrances
These fragrances are grounded – literally. They come from the bark of trees, roots, moss and other elements that nature offers. Notes like sandalwood, cedar, patchouli and vetiver lay the foundation for this rich and complex fragrance profile.
So, what's the mood here? It's sophisticated but not showy. It's rugged, raw and resonates with a sense of maturity and confidence. If citrus and fresh is the day's energetic start, woody and earthy is the chilled evening wind-down. These types of fragrances are ideal for guys who like their style fuss-free, grounded and down-to-earth.
Woody and earthy fragrances are the perfect blend for those moments that require a touch more finesse, where you want to be noticed for the right reasons.
