Colognes can make or break someone's impression of you especially if it's the first impression. You want to make sure the scent isn't too loud and overbearing. During the winter, most folks tend to spray on more than they usually would in hopes of making the scent more long-lasting. However, with the right fragrance, all you'll need is 1-2 pumps. For cooler temps, lean towards crisp elixirs with cedarwood, lavender, mint, or vetiver notes, and save the more fruity aromas for warmer weather.

To give you an extra layer of cozy freshness for the next few months, we've rounded up 8 of winter's best sellers.
