 Common mistakes men make when choosing and wearing cologne:

1.    Over-applying: One of the most common mistakes men make is applying too much perfume. A little goes a long way, and too much can be overwhelming.

2.    Choosing the wrong fragrance: It's important to choose a fragrance that complements your personal style and body chemistry. Don't just choose a fragrance because it's popular or because someone else likes it.

3.    Ignoring the season: Different fragrances are better suited for different seasons. Lighter, fresher scents are more appropriate for summer, while warmer, spicier scents are better for winter.

4.    Not considering the occasion: Just like with layering fragrances, it's important to consider the occasion when choosing a fragrance. A lighter, fresher scent may be more appropriate for daytime wear, while a more intense, spicy fragrance may be better for evening events.

5.    Applying perfume to the right areas: Cologne should be applied to pulse points, such as the wrists, neck, and generously on your chest.

6.    Rubbing the fragrance into your skin can actually break down the scent and make it dissipate faster. Instead, spray the fragrance on your skin and let it dry naturally.

7.    Not testing the fragrance first: It's important to test a fragrance on your skin before purchasing it. Spray a small amount on your skin and wear it for a few hours to see how it smells on you and how it develops over time.

8.    Using too many fragrances at once: Layering fragrances can be a great way to create a unique scent, but using too many fragrances at once can be overwhelming. Stick to one or two fragrances at a time.

9. Not storing fragrances properly: Fragrances should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Storing fragrances in a warm or humid environment can affect their scent and quality over time.

 By creating a personalized fragrance, you can break away from traditional stereotypes and embrace your unique identity. At Maison 21G, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to express
