These Are the 5 Trendiest Fragrance Notes For Fall 2016

If you are shopping for him or prefer a more masculine scent, one of the trendiest notes this Fall is fern, or fougères, which reads effortless, classic, and cool. Gilman says that even perfumeries that might not have ever created masculine scents before are coming out for a chance to play with fern.

"Amouage's Bracken Man ($325) and Dusita Issara ($295) demonstrate how wonderfully naturalistic and earthy high-end fougères can go, while still smelling drop-dead sexy," Gilman said, adding that "more traditional-feeling entries, like Parfums MDCI Le Barbier du Tangier ($250), prove that really, classically soapy barbershop versions are completely timeless."
