Scentbird For Men is a monthy cologne and eau de parfum subscription.  Each month, you get a thirty day supply of your chosen cologne, plus a new sprayer.  When you join you fill out a profile – including three of your favorite designer fragrances – then you make a wishlist of colognes you’d like to try.  Your first month includes a case to hold your current cologne sprayer.  You can add extra cases to an existing subscription for $12.95.

Your first month will include a little cologne vial case and velvet holder.  The case looks nice and is great for protecting your cologne when tossed in a gym bag or dopp kit.  You just twist it to spray.

Scentbird decants the cologne from the manufacturer’s bottle to a little glass vial with a 8 ml sprayer.  The colognes are 100% authentic, but the repackaging and single-month portioning saves you a ton on the price over the full bottle.

A card comes with the vial demonstrating use.  Unlike in the women’s subscription, the Men’s instructions do not leverage a lipstick case analogy to describe the function of the sprayer.

A card teases next month’s featured scent… Commodity’s Book!  You can choose to receive the featured fragrance if it sounds like your cup of tea, but what you receive the next month is determined by what you have in your queue.

The September box included a special booklet previewing new scents!

The booklet contained a detailed description of the scents, including a notation of whether they are intended as a men’s, women’s 0r unisex fragrance.

My September selection was English Laundry Oxford Bleu!  I’m a big fan of English Laundry’s fragrances, as they have a nice balance of spice, floral, and musk that is very wearable.  The Oxford Bleu is light, bright, crisp, powdery, and sweet.  Mint, green apple, and lemon lead the bright top notes, with powdery iris and and geranium easing the transition to the mellow base notes of vanilla, sandalwood, oakmoss, and sweet vetiver.  Perhaps the most openly floral and soft of the English Laundry fragrances, Oxford Bleu is a fun change of pace for when you want something bright and gentle.

I like that I can queue up the fragrances that interest me, and I can preview the composition and profile of each to see if it matches my tastes.  Each bottle has a ton of fragrance, and they are the real deal from the best designers, so you can try their newer offerings or revisit popular classics. FYI – there is no gender divide with this subscription – ladies can add men’s fragrances and vice versa, and you can share if you’d like, or get a second subscription if you find it impossible.
