Top 25 BEST-SELLING Men's Colognes RANKED
About this video
Centeno ranks 25 bestselling men’s fragrances based on price, versatility, and compliment-factor rather than sales alone, targeting newcomers to fragrance. He evaluates each fragrance’s practical value for someone building an initial collection, explaining why certain popular fragrances didn’t make his top 25 and providing detailed commentary on his ranked selections.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that beginners prioritize price, versatility (wanting one fragrance that works across seasons), and social approval when selecting fragrances, unlike experienced collectors
- Centeno recommends avoiding retail prices on most fragrances and seeking discounters for better deals, and notes that some iconic fragrances like Creed Aventus are excluded due to prohibitive cost
- Centeno ranks Versace Man Eau Fraiche as #1 for best-selling fragrances, citing its combination of versatility, compliment-factor, and price, while Lacoste L.12.12 ranks #2 for its light wearability and affordability
