Kohl’s is a highly popular department store here in the United States, which usually has some great deals and discount opportunities associated with its merchandise. They also seem to have quite a wide selection of colognes available for a department store. For this post, I wanted to present to you what I consider the top fragrances offered by Kohl’s and I have linked each one out to its page on the company’s website and have included a link to any review I have done for each cologne.

Top Men’s Fragrances at Kohl’s

Polo Black– Polo Black features top notes of mango, tangerine, and lemon giving it a tropical feel from the start. The mango note is fantastic here and a real selling point. Sage and patchouli come in to give it a woody/earthy/spicy finish.

The sillage and longevity are pretty moderate but Polo Black smells fantastic and has been a best seller for many years now. It’s not really a heavy or ‘dark’ sort of fragrance, despite what the name would suggest. My Full Review

Light Blue Eau Intense– Some people prefer the original Light Blue and if you want a spicier citrus, it’s also available at Kohl’s. However, I think that Eau Intense is the better of the two, both in terms of smell and performance.

It kicks off with a frozen grapefruit note and mandarin orange. It gives a smooth and chilled feeling, that is great in the summer months. It has an aquatic feeling, but isn’t oceanic, from its mix of juniper and amberwood. Feels more like a dive in the pool, rather than the sea. My Eau Intense Review

Diesel Bad– Diesel Bad has more of a niche use than the others on the list, but it is still a really nice cologne. It’s geared more towards casual wear and nightlife, mainly for younger men (think college age to mid-20s).

It opens up with lavender and bergamot, this is the weakest part of the wear. Then, the tobacco, amber, and woods come in to give a more well-rounded aroma. Add to that, some underlying spice and you have a bold and enjoyable cologne. I get about 8-9 hours of wear out of this one. Diesel Bad Review

Burberry Brit– Burberry Brit takes on a really fresh and powdery sort of aroma. It starts things off greenish with some spice from ginger and a rose note. Then, it softens up with a lovely finish that is perfect for moderate to colder weather.

This is one that I have been a fan of for a long time. It’s one that I like to spray on during the autumn months. Again, it has that fine powder smell, so if that’s not your thing…go with another. Burberry Brit Review

Versace Man Eau Fraiche– Very crisp and bright, Man Eau Fraiche starts off with a cold blend of lemon and starfruit. It’s pretty straightforward, as a summertime scent, but you do get sage and tarragon to add a bit of spice. Plus, the base notes of wood help to give this one some more body.

Mostly, this will be a good pick for the warmer weather. Although, if you live in a place with a hotter climate year round, it could absolutely be a daily wear. Not super powerful, though, it has solid performance. Man Eau Fraiche Review

Reaction by Kenneth Cole– Apple, melon, and citrus lead the notes of the always popular Reaction by Kenneth Cole. This has been around for a few decades now and still has its loyal followers.

Quite youthful and easy to wear. The juicy fruits give this an almost aquatic sort of presentation and it is held together by a sandalwood note, in the base. A good option for teens and college age men. Not too complicated, just clean and pleasant. 

Mont Blanc Legend Night– Legend Night has gotten somewhat more popular since its release, but still seems to fly under the radar. It’s another one that I love to wear. It starts with bergamot citrus and candied apple. Yes, it does have a sweet profile, but it’s more complex than that.

Mint, sage, and cardamom come in for that added depth. At first, the mint and candied apple create a nice duo, before the cardamom grows heavier and warms things up. Sometimes, it reacts differently on my skin and I get more sage and cardamom, at first. 

Either way, Legend Night shifts from cool and fresh to warm with a kick. Not overly heavy, but I can get 7-9 hours of wear. This is more geared toward the nightlife, but I’ve also worn it during the day in autumn and winter. Mont Blanc Legend Night Review

Best Men's Colognes

Best Men’s Colognes started back in 2013, as a way to share my learning experiences with different fragrances, as I dove head first into the hobby. Since then, I have written hundreds of reviews and other pages about perfumes and colognes.
