How to Use Essential Oils to Smell Masculine

There’s nothing more attractive than a great-smelling man. If you’re looking for a scent that suits your personality and makes you smell masculine, two words should come to mind: essential oils.

Now, you’re probably thinking essential oils are feminine and you don’t want to end up smelling sweet. The truth is, there are a myriad of essential oils that are both great for your skin and make you smell like a manly man.

Don’t know where to start? Here are some fragrances that you should add to your arsenal.

 Vetiver

Chances are, you’ve smelled lavender essential oil before. Do you want a scent that reduces stress with a macho aroma? Consider trying vetiver. Instead of a floral scent, vetiver mirrors the smell of freshly cut grass. Pair it with tangerine in a carrier oil or in your favorite cleanser for a refreshing clean.

 Copaiba

Looking to smell fresh and take care of your skin? Copaiba is a gentleman’s best friend. Many describe this oil as a balsamic or peppery-like aroma.

In fact, Copaiba is one of the go-to scents used in beard oils, colognes, and incense. This fragrance pairs well with cedarwood and other earthy scents.

 Sacred Sandalwood

If you’ve been to the spa and smelled something woodsy yet soft, it’s sandalwood. Sandalwood is special because it takes a sandalwood tree 30 years for the essential oil to mature enough for extraction.

Sacred sandalwood also works wonders for the skin and scalp. Whether you have wondrous locks or want to smell strong while growing out your beard, add it to your grooming routine.

 Ginger

Ginger is not only beneficial to your overall health. When applied topically, it makes you smell bold with a hint of spice. Ginger is also considered a stimulant, so you can wear it if you need a bit more help staying alert. Ginger essential oil creates a breathtaking smell when paired with citrus oils like lemon.

Smelling masculine doesn’t have to break the bank. If you have sensitive skin or simply prefer a signature scent, essential oils are the way to go. Best of all, the previously mentioned oils are beneficial for your health. However you decide to use essential oils, make sure you always dilute them. Applying essential oils at their natural concentration can cause adverse side effects.
