When you think of summer you might think of fun in the sun, cookouts, swimming and more. Or, a time where people let loose, get wild, and show people who they really are by expressing themselves. That means this is a good time for you to make a statement with your summer cologne choice. ChicagoMOD has rounded up five summer scents for men that will make a lasting impression.
Les Exclusifs De Chanel Boy Chanel, one of Chanel’s newest fragrances, is a treasure to have. This scent is soft, yet vibrant, with a vigorous romantic smell that any man can wear. Though the scent is a masculine one, fresh hints of lavender, rose geranium, lemon, vanilla, and musk are soft enough to make it sweet. Available at Chanel, 935 N. Michigan Ave., 312-787-5500, chanel.com, $350
Soleil Blanc Atomizer is one of the many best-selling men’s fragrances by Tom Ford. A soft cologne inspired by fresh flowers and warmth from the sun, this scent will immediately transport you to a sunny private island. Available at Tom Ford, 66 E. Oak St., 312-605-5041, tomford.com, $450

Saharienne- Le Vestiaire des Parfums by Yves Saint Laurent is a signature fragrance. Full of summer seduction, this cologne will take any man on an adventure with an aroma of a sweet scented desert.
