colognes
Bottled masculine fragrances
Colognes is the plural of cologne, a lightly scented liquid applied to the skin.
Cologne is less concentrated than perfume, typically containing 2-5% fragrance oils.
The word comes from Cologne, Germany, where a distinctive citrus-based scent was first produced.
Men's fragrances are often marketed as colognes regardless of concentration: He had too many colognes on his bathroom shelf.
