With the holidays quickly approaching, men’s cologne is a quick and easy gift for any of the men in your life. As a female, I love the way men’s cologne smells. Different colognes remind me of different people.
In the right environment, a great smelling (and not overbearing) cologne can only enhance your appeal.
There are so many colognes to pick from when choosing gifts that it’s hard to know where to start.
According to About.com the top selling men’s colognes are:
1. John Varvatos
3. L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme
4. Black Code by Giorgio Armani
5. Acqua Di Gio Pour Homme by Giorgio Armani
6. Aqva Pour Homme by Bvlgari
7. Sean John Unforgivable
8. Clean Men
9. Hugo by Hugo Boss
10.Touch For Men by Burberry

Mambo by Liz Claiborne
Cool Water by Davidoff
Eternity by Calvin Klein

Buying any man in your life a gift always seems to be a challenge. For women, you can always fall back on lotion or beauty products, but what great gift can you get a man that he will actually use and be thankful for? My go-to gift has always been a great razor or cologne but after seeing the amount of colognes my brother has and does not use, I figure a razor is a much more practical gift.
I’ve seen some great reviews for the Braun 8995 360 Complete Men’s Shaver. I think this will definitely make it on my Christmas list.
Braun states that it “provides Braun’s closest, most complete shave ever. Braun’s patented Power-Comb lifts problem hairs that lie flat to the skin to avoid missed hairs in hard to shave areas. The unique SmartFoil pattern captures hairs growing in different directions.”
Expo member bk0 seemed to really like the razor, pointing out it’s quality in sharpness and how well it works.

The boy in my apartment swears by ZIRH Shave Cream. He typically only shaves once or twice every couple of months, so anything he would use needs to be intense. The formula is specifically made for heavy beards, and it does seem to hold up well on those rare occasions when he breaks out the razor.
I’m not sure why he initially chose to try this particular brand (maybe it looks both manly enough and non-descript enough?), but it does a good job. Extra bonus: added aloe in the formula makes his face super soft afterwards - double score!
