You might be needing something unique to gift your partner for Christmas. These three fragrances I'm highlighting from Atelier Cologne will be a real treat for any lucky recipient. 

Here are 3 Incredible fragrances for him that I would recommend from their collection.

Atelier Cologne Vetiver Fatal 

Firstly, this is a scent that can be worn for him or her as it's very inoffensive and doesn't contain those real ultra-masculine notes like leather or tobacco. 

The box and bottle is clean and classic. Very simple and with the italic handwriting looks very personal and unique. That esoteric-ergonomic touch reverberates through to the scent. It has a very sweet opening. Fresh, woody and cool. It's the vetiver that really distinguishes this scent from anything else. And if you're unsure what that smells like, try to imagine the after taste of going apple-bobbing. 

Atelier Cologne Santal Carmin 

A rich, deep fragrance made of sandalwood from Australia, bergamot from Italy and guaiac wood from Central America. 

This doesn't have the shazam citrusy opening that Atelier is known for. Instead what you get is a comforting smooth and creamy blend, wrapped in a blanket of buttery-vanilla goodness. The vanilla is one of the best that I've smelled in a fragrance. So many vanilla notes can be too over powering or just offensively synthetic.

On the dry down you'll get a push from the sandalwood and the saffron which really gives it some character. Perhaps without this it could be compared to a single grain whiskey. A little too functional and straight laced. 

Atelier Cologne Musc Imperial 

An intensely sensual fragrance with a musky accord, bergamot from Italy and cedarwood from the Americas. Irresistible. Whatever the time. Whatever the place. 

It's presented in a blue box with a leather cap. Most of you that like Aventus by Creed will love this.  In fact you'd be forgiven in thinking that this would be a flanker for Aventus. They both share that light opening, with a citrusy-pineapple vibe. 

The notes you'll feel on the opening are blackcurrant, lavender and bergamot. On the dry down you'll sense the leather accord and a deeper fruity nuance. 

It's definitely got that high end smell and you could also detect some fig in there. It's very refined, it's very natural but this is most certainly a fragrance for him. A woman with a strong personality could pull this off but at a stretch.
