And, let\u2019s be honest, some of the more affordable colognes for men just don\u2019t offer the longevity or scent that you\u2019re looking for. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But we\u2019ve done the hard work and pulled together a list of all of our favorite affordable colognes for men, with an option for every occasion. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking for a new fragrance to wear to the office, to the gym, on a Friday night, or a lazy weekend? Read on for all of our top picks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Affordable Cologne for Men<\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/liz-claiborne\/curve-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Curve by Liz Claiborne<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aromatic, woody, and a little bit fruity: Curve by Liz Claiborne is one of the best affordable men&#8217;s colognes that never fails. This versatile cologne blends top notes of pineapple, lavender, and lemon with an aromatic heart of ginger, sage, and cardamom and a traditional woody base of musk, sandalwood, and mahogany.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/nautica\/nautica-blue-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nautica Blue by Nautica<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nautica Blue by Nautica is an affordable cologne that&#8217;s perfect for any man who loves the ocean. This marine-inspired brand offers a whole range of aquatic and woody scents but Nautica Blue remains its most popular. With its notes of bergamot, peach, water lily, and jasmine, this is a cologne you&#8217;ll love most on the weekend when heading out for a sailing trip.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/bogart\/bogart-story-green-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bogart Story Green by Bogart<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bogart Story Green by Bogart is an underdog in the world of affordable men&#8217;s cologne. This aromatic, woody scent smells far more expensive than its price tag suggests with a longevity to match. Fresh, green, and a little soapy, this is a great choice for Monday mornings when you need a little extra help feeling presentable for the working week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/guess\/guess-marciano-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guess Marciano by Guess<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guess Marciano by Guess is an evening time scent that pairs best with a suit and smart shoes. Another expensive-smelling cologne that&#8217;s actually on the budget-friendly end of the spectrum, Guess Marciano blends ginger and mandarin with spicy black pepper. It&#8217;s invigorating and warming, working especially well to impress during the colder seasons of the year.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/guy-laroche\/drakkar-noir-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drakkar Noir by Guy Laroche<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As well as famously being Drake&#8217;s favorite cologne <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teenvogue.com\/story\/drake-tattoo\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(he even has a tattoo of the bottle)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Drakkar Noir by Guy Laroche is a timeless choice that works well on men of all generations. A popular cheap cologne with an undying appeal, Drakkar Noir fuses together top notes of rosemary, artemisia, lavender, and basil with a rich, heady base of patchouli, oakmoss, vetiver, and cedar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/davidoff\/cool-water-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cool Water by Davidoff<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cool Water by Davidoff may have first been released in the &#8217;80s but this classic cologne will never go out of style. Aromatic and green, this cheap men&#8217;s cologne is a great choice to wear in warmer weather, adding just the right amount of personality to your look. With its top notes of sea water, lavender, and mint, it&#8217;s a refreshing scent that&#8217;ll add a spring to your step during summer months.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fragrancex.com\/products\/paul-sebastian\/paul-sebastian-cologne\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paul Sebastian by Paul Sebastian<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paul Sebastian by Paul Sebastian is spicy and sweet and suitable for men in their 30s and 40s.
