Unisex Cologne (34)

Cologne is the cosmetic product of all generations, whose name carries weight in its own right, even though modern vocabulary tries hard to replace it with "aftershave". A light aromatic concentration, yet so much freshness and elegance.

For centuries, cologne has been the embodiment of gallantry and cleanliness, reflecting social standing and the level of personal hygiene among men. Nowadays, cosmetic technology allows the fairer sex as well to enjoy something not quite as concentrated and heavy as a fragrance, pampering both their senses and their image.

The aromatic secrets of unisex colognes

Literally translated, cologne means "water from Cologne" (from the French "eau de Cologne"), and behind it lies a rich history. The birthplace of this product is one of the largest European cities, which sheltered the young Italian and its creator, Giovanni Maria Farina.

Giovanni was repulsed by the foul smell of sweat and refuse that filled the streets of the city, and this drove him to invent a small bottle of carefully chosen scents of flowers and herbs that would remind him of his native Italy. This is how an intriguing story of a product began, one still favored to this day by connoisseurs of irresistible fragrances.

The blend of ingredients in men's colognes is usually balanced, often relying on the freshness of citrus notes and herbal fragrance, without resorting to heavy accents such as musk or even heavier oriental tones.

They are usually applied to the body and clothing, and for men they can also be used after shaving for a pleasant scent and to soothe irritated skin. The main solvent and active ingredient in the product's composition is alcohol, which easily carries the scent and dissolves the fragrant oils.

Demineralized water helps balance the dissolved concentration, while natural or synthetic fixatives such as benzoin, ambergris, myrtle, or vetiver help preserve the fragrance for as long as possible.

Here are the most common notes found in unisex colognes:

• Citrus, bergamot, lemon, grapefruit;
• Herbs, sage, rosemary, green tea, eucalyptus, mint;
• Woody notes, sandalwood, cedar;
• Marine notes.

The most suitable places to apply cologne are the neck and the wrist.

Why choose a unisex cologne

The reasons to choose a unisex cologne are clear. By using this product, you refresh your skin and soothe it after shaving. The texture of these products is lighter and doesn't feel heavy when worn.

Its lighter concentration is suitable for people with more sensitive skin, as it doesn't further irritate its outer layer. These colognes are ideal for those who favor airier, less intense fragrances, and they're perfect for everyday use, whether at work or for more special occasions.

Their fragrant ingredients make them suitable for both men and women who prefer herbal notes over vanilla and musk. They highlight the vitality of the modern individual and convey a sense of cleanliness and lightness.
