Best Cyber Monday deals on men's fragrances and colognes live – snap up these bargains before the sales end tonight

The perfect modern man's scent

Hello, and welcome to T3's live coverage of the best men's fragrance deals this Black Friday. I'm Sam Cross – the brand's chief tester of all things fragrant and a self proclaimed scent sommelier – and I've been hard at work scouring the best deals from our trusted partners since the start of November.

Whether you're looking to treat yourself or a loved one, you simply cannot go wrong with Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Elixir. It's one of the most popular male fragrances for a reason, with a scent profile that is elegant and effortless, without being too adventurous.

Right now, you can snag a 75ml bottle for under £70 at LOOKFANTASTIC, which is a killer price for this!

Ralph Lauren steps things up

I've long been a fan of Ralph Lauren scents, with the brand offering a neat mix of nostalgic fragrance and affordability that was perfect for young (broke) Sam.

Recently, I got my hands on a bottle of its newest fragrance – Ralph's Club New York. And I'm besotted with it, thanks to a unique blackcurrant note which underpins a remarkably wearable and homely scent.

At just £88 for 110ml right now, you'll struggle to go wrong with this one.

Look busy, the BOSS is coming

Hugo Boss is a classic name in the world of men's scent, offering decent bottles at prices which are easy to stomach.

Right now, you can pick up a whopping 200ml bottle of its Bottled Night scent for just £46.75 at Amazon. That is – pound-for-pound – one of the best value scents out there right now.

Last Christmas, I picked up this scent

One bottle I can personally attest to the quality of is Versace Eros. I was gifted a bottle of this last Christmas, and it has quickly become a mainstay in my collection.

Packed full of spices and woods, this one is the perfect accompaniment to a night out, and comes complete with a gorgeous bottle which will look perfect on your nightstand.

Save £25 on it at Boots, right now.

Tempting Tom Ford

I'm actually not looking to pick up any new scents this Black Friday – normally I'd use the occasion to stock up on bargain bottles or try something new, but my fragrance shelf is currently overflowing.

However, if anything was going to tempt me, it'd be this bottle of Tom Ford Bitter Peach. I have a small sample of this one, and it's just perfect for those days where nothing else feels quite right.

At just £148, it's the right time to buy.

Buy the Dip(tyque)

Another bottle I'd consider tempting myself with is Diptyque's Orpheon. The iconic scent is a cult classic, and is one I've always wanted to add to my fragrance shelf.

Right now, there are no deals on the cost of the bottle itself, though SpaceNK does at least give you a free candle and some samples when you buy.

Watch this space though – if the bottle drops in price, I'll let you know here!

Perfectly priced Prada

You know those bottles you smell once and they just stick with you forever? Well, that's exactly what Prada's Luna Rossa Ocean did for me.

I can still remember the scent, and yet I've never tempted myself into buying a bottle. Maybe that'll change this year, as Boots has 25% off it, now just £60.

The OG fragrance, now 20% off

It's not possible to talk scent without a mention for Acqua di Parma's Colonia. The bottle is over a century old, and has formed the cornerstone for fresh, citrus scents since before we had Transatlantic flight.

For that reason, it's always in my rotation, and it should be in your too. SpaceNK has the original marked down by 20%, costing just £86.40.

Thanks a million!

If you're a gent of a certain age, Paco Rabanne's One Million will either strike fear into your heart or give you a nostalgic flashback. This bottle was everywhere back in the day – two of my four siblings wore it, and while it's hardly the best dataset ever, it's representatively equivalent to 50% of the population!

LOOKFANTASTIC is currently selling the Parfum Intense bottle for half price, meaning you can snag 100ml for just £54.

The One and only

While everyone loves a high end fragrance from a luxurious brand, sometimes something tried and true is just as good. Dolce & Gabbana's The One has been around for over a decade now, and it still can stand up with the best of them.

Tobacco and Amber at the base ensure a refined, elegant dry down, which should make this one perfect for dinner dates and evening events. Right now, it's half price at LOOKFANTASTIC.

D'you like jazz?

One of the most appreciated brands in the modern fragrance game is Maison Margiela, and specifically the Replica collection. It's a neat offering, with luxurious scents from a recognisable brand name, at a price that won't bust the bank.

Many will be familiar with Jazz Club, but I've also got a soft spot for By the Fireplace (better than Jazz Club, in this reviewer's humble opinion) and Under the Lemon Tree.

All three of them are reduced in the LOOKFANTASTIC sale, with code SAVE letting you snag a 100ml bottle for just £93.75. Score!

Bargain blue bottle

Before I sign off for the evening, let me leave you with one last hit of nostalgia. Versace's Blue Jeans has been around for decades, and is one of the best affordable scents out there.

Right now, you can pick up a 75ml bottle for just £17.20 at Sephora, which is insane value. It's unlikely to be the most refined bottle in your collection, but for an inoffensive – and inexpensive – everyday option, this should work a charm.

You can't go wrong with Dior Sauvage

We've all seen the Dior Sauvage advert with Johnny Depp in it, and if you ask me, it definitely makes me want to buy the fragrance!

Right now at The Perfume Shop, Dior Sauvage Elixir is now just £114.40 and it smells divine. I'd like to say it smells like Mr Depp himself, but sadly, I've never had the pleasure of meeting him so you'll just have to use your imagination.

Bleu de Chanel – it's a classic for a reason

My favourite fragrance that my husband wears is the Chanel Bleu de Chanel. It's clean, crisp and masculine, and is perfect for an evening out or date night.

The Fragrance Shop has given it a cheeky discount for Black Friday, taking it down to just £66.75. P.S. If you're a Fragrance Shop member, you can get an even bigger price cut!

Creed Aventus is a cult classic – and it's now 25% off

Creed Aventus is a definite cult classic, and it's now 25% off in the Cult Beauty Black Friday sale.

Creed Aventus is a blend of citrus and wood with notes of lemon, bergamot and blackcurrant. It's got a hint of spice with pink pepper and florals from jasmine – it ticks all the boxes really!

Available in 30ml, 50ml and 100ml sizes, Creed Aventus is the perfect fragrance to give to someone who's just getting into cologne – and it's now just £123.75 for Black Friday.

I'm guilty for loving this Gucci deal

I love Gucci Guilty (both the men's and women's versions), and Gucci Guilty for Him is now just £35 in the Boots Black Friday sale.

From the fougere family, Gucci Guilty has notes of cedar, patchouli, lemon, lavender and orange blossom. It's another of my husband's favourites and it's a brilliant choice for everyday and into the night.

Welcome to Black Friday

Good morning scent lovers! Sam Cross here, back with you for the bulk of Black Friday to showcase the best-smelling fragrances at the best prices. It's one of the best times of year to hunt for new fragrance – whether for yourself or as a gift – with some crazy price cuts available.

Let me kick off with one such example this morning – Burberry Hero is 37% off right now at Sephora! It's one I've not tried personally, but as my partner recently fell in love with the female version, I'm keen to give it a go.

Feeling Magnetic

Amazon can be great for scent deals at this time of year, with bargain bottles available from a range of strong brands. One such example this year comes from BOSS, with The Scent Magnetic down to just £44!

That's a bargain, and represents a whopping 56% saving. The scent is packed with amber, fruits and leather, which should make it elegant and very wearable.

Extreme spice awaits

Viktor & Rolf's Spicebomb Extreme has become a favourite of many modern scent lovers, owing to its projection and longevity. It's a modern classic, with a scent profile that includes tobacco, vanilla and bourbon.

If you're seeking something refined and elegant, but with a bit of personality in the form of heavy spice, it's a must buy. And it's just £73.50 at Boots right now – score!

Something to discover

If you're looking to broaden your horizons when it comes to fragrance, there's no better way of doing it than with a discovery set. These often include a wide range of different miniature bottles from a brand, which allow you to try before you buy a larger bottle.

I've picked out this Maison Margiela one, which is just £25.20 at LOOKFANTASTIC. It packs in 10 2ml vials, and gives users a chance to experience the full range for peanuts.

Ready to Explore?

Montblanc's Explorer is a classic fragrance for men, and it's one we often see discounted in these sales events. I've found each of the different sizes discounted at LOOKFANTASTIC by 30%, making it a really attractive buy:

30ml just £27.30
60ml just £44.10
100ml just £59.50
200ml just £88.20

Bargains from Barbour

Barbour may be better known for its luxurious coats, but its collection of fragrances are also worthy of your attention. Slick bottles with a nod to the brand's fashion is the order of the day here, and they really do punch above their weight.

Right now, you can pick up Coastal, Origins or Heritage from The Fragrance Shop for just £57 per bottle – that's a saving of £19.

Popular! You're gonna be pop-u-lar...

While it can be nice to stand out from the crowd sometimes, popular things are often popular for a reason. Mass appeal isn't always a bad thing, and Dior's Homme Intense EDP is an incredibly popular men's scent.

Right now, the best deal I've found on it comes from Boots, where you can snag a 50ml bottle for just £69.60!

A wonder from down under

One brand I've grown really attached to this year is Goldfield and Banks. The Australian brand has soared to prominence, with a range of brilliant scents inspired by the Aussie landscape.

Both Ingenious Ginger and Bohemian Lime are bottles I've tested and adored, and both are also on sale at LOOKFANTASTIC. Snag the 100ml bottles for £98, or the 50ml ones for £70 right now.

Tom Ford top five

It's hard to talk about men's fragrance without a mention for Tom Ford. I'm a long-time lover of these bottles, and the deals available from LOOKFANTASTIC make some of my favourites even more accessible. Here are five of the best:

Tom Ford Oud Minérale EDP: was £108, now £75.60
Tom Ford Oud Wood EDP: was £145, now £101.50
Tom Ford Lost Cherry EDP: was £180, now £126
Tom Ford Bitter Peach EDP: was £185, now £129.50
Tom Ford Ebène Fumé EDP: was £222, now £155.40

Is this the most iconic fragrance bottle ever?

Looking for a fragrance Christmas gift? We couldn't recommend Diesel Only The Brave more, and it comes in arguably the most iconic fragrance bottle there is.

In the classic clenched fist bottle is a fresh, citrusy smelling scent. Ideal for everyday wear, Diesel Only The Brave has notes of lemon, cedar and leather, making it a real crowd pleaser.

This Azzaro fragrance is my Most Wanted...

Another great Christmas gift or a treat for yourself, Azzaro The Most Wanted Parfum is now 20% off at Sephora.

Spicy and ambery, this fragrance is intense and fiery, with notes of ginger and woods. It has a creamy base note of bourbon vanilla and comes in a black barrel bottle.

Prada Paradigme smells delicious – and it's 30% off

Prada Paradigme has been my favourite fragrance to test this year. Inside its beautiful green bottle is amber, geranium and bergamot, which is warming and perfect for everyday.

Right now at Boots, Prada Paradigme is just £80.50, thanks to this £34.50 price cut. It's surprising to see such a new fragrance get this big of a discount, so it's worth the treat.

Mugler never misses

I love a good Mugler fragrance, and the Mugler A * MEN is no exception.

Now 30% off at Amazon, Mugler A * MEN is available in 50ml and 100ml sizes, and has a strong woody scent. What's even better is it's refillable so you can top it up in the same attractive, star-shaped bottle for years to come.

Get struck by lightning by Carolina Herrera

Another fun bottle to liven up your fragrance collection, Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Cobalt is now just £60 in Sephora's Black Friday sale.

Aside from its fun lightning bolt bottle, Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Cobalt is masculine and complex. It's extremely fresh and aromatic, with notes of pink pepper, truffle, oak, cedar, vetiver and geranium.

Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio

A classic scent that remains as popular as ever, the Aqua Di Gio Parfum is now £37 off, taking that 50ml bottle down to just £55.

Armani Diamonds drops

The Emporio Armani Diamonds for Men is down to £35 for 75ml – that's 50% off the list price. This spicy, woody scent is another classic and one that's worth adding to your collection if you don't already own it.

Pre-Cyber Monday deals

Happy Sunday scent lovers! Sam Cross here, back in the saddle and ready to bring you more of the best deals on fragrances as we pivot from Black Friday towards Cyber Monday. The good news is that the deals are sticking around, meaning you can still snag a bargain.

One I've picked out this morning is this large bottle of Dior Sauvage Elixir, which sees the largest drop in the Boots sale. £51.60 has been trimmed from the price tag, allowing you to snag 150ml of the stuff for £206.40.

Most Wanted now even cheaper

A few posts back, we spoke about Azzaro's Most Wanted, which is discounted at Sephora. There's an even better deal to be had on it, though – Amazon is currently selling the 100ml bottle for just £55.48, marking a saving of 44%.

Fragrance from Tiffany's

While Tiffany and Co is more likely to be associated with female jewellery, the brand also offers a range of fragrances. Most of those are also aimed towards the feminine end of the spectrum.

There is one masculine scent in the portfolio, though, and it's currently 30% off at Sephora! Tiffany & Love For Him is woody scent, topped with spices and citrus for an easy wearing finish – and it's only £51.80 right now.
