đ§ş brand of the week: Bravo Sierra
MILITARY-GRADE, MILITARY MADE
Youâre deep in work. You look at the clock. Shit, itâs 5:38 pm? How? Iâve got a date at 6. No chance I can shower and get ready in timeâŚ
Well, the folks at Bravo Sierra got you. Built for those with active lifestyles, theyâve created a large scaling testing platform with a community of 2,000 active-duty U.S. service members to come up with some of the best products in the world.
And boy, did they deliver.
Vegan formulas.100% made in the USA. Branding so clean (you might shed a tear) your S.O. will be asking, âWOW, what is this?â And thatâs because their signature scent is simply đ THAT GOOD đ. Itâs OK, your secretâs safe with me.
If youâre ever in a sticky situation, youâll find every product for your needs. Things like dry shampoo, shave foam, deodorant (I use this myself), antibacterial body wipes, you NAME IT.
And they contribute 5% off their sales to community support programs for U.S. service members, veterans, and their families.
I mean⌠do you need me to keep going??

đ 7 menâs cologne âdupesâ
1 Dossier
Dossier is in a league of its own. The new and upcoming brand has developed a dupe system with high-quality perfumes without the jaw-dropping price tag. They bring you iconic menâs cologne; like Tom Ford, Chanel, and Creed. The best part is itâs the same luxe scent and still has that high-quality feel.
Because of the lack of celebrity endorsements and crazy markups you can get some high-end shit for only $29+.
You donât even have to decide what works for you. Take the simple quiz and youâll find out. If not, hit the full catalog to find out what dupes theyâve got and seen if your favorite luxe cologne is on there.
2 Hawthorne
Hawthorne took it upon themselves to create a fully custom system depending on your taste and liking. Theyâve created a comprehensive quiz that perfectly tailors their scent products to your liking. After building a data set from hundreds of thousands of customers - their algorithm helps define the perfect products based on your body chemistry and lifestyle.
If youâre not happy, theyâll even retailor them for free. Although it doesnât cost over $200+, it will run you around $100 - so keep that in mind before you start shopping for custom cologne at Hawthorne.
3 Duke Cannon
Duke Cannon is really set up for the hard-working man. To make superior quality products, theyâve tested them with military folk and fully make their products in the USA.
If youâre out in the field a ton⌠in the beating heat - Duke Cannonâs solid cologne is perfect for you. Itâs a concentrated blend so you donât have to mess with sprays. It melts in your figure tips to allow perfect application. And they can go anywhere with you; drop it in your bag, in your cup holder, wherever!
And itâs made with vegan ingredients, so it wonât leave your skin with a tacky feel.
4 Scentbird
Scentbird has taken a completely different approach to providing luxury scents. Built off a subscription model running only $15.95 a month, you can choose from their long list of best sellers. From Prada to Versace, CartierâŚ. they pack it in these sleek refillable cases holding roughly 140 sprays each.
This perfect for someone who wants luxury scents, but is not sure what they like yet. You can swap them out every order - giving you the ability to sample colognes across all spectrums.
5 Fulton & Roark
Solid colognes have really made a footing in the fragrance industry in the last few years. And Fulton & Roark are leading the charge.
With an award-winning take on the finest traditional spray colognes - theyâve reimagined them in a sleek, modern, and travel-friendly format. They take a different approach; working backward by developing a product from the desired scent. They spend hours researching optimal levels of scents to make it more enjoyable which has them touting âProduct of the Yearâ from GQ and Menâs Health.
The best part is that you can try their menâs cologne sampler for only $20 bucks before you jump in. If youâre not into sprays, Fulton & Roark might be just for you.
6 Dr. Squatch
Dr. Squatch has, probably, one of the funniest marketing campaigns out there. But donât let their humor fool you. Theyâre the real deal.
Mostly known for their soap bars, theyâve taken it upon themselves to attack the boring name brands who are tossing the word ânaturalâ like itâs actually naturalâŚ.
Using essential oils to produce their colognes really gives you a rise above the standard fragrance. It gives you a very earthly feel and lasts a super long time. And for the price tag of only $21 bucks?? You canât beat it.
7 ALT
Similar to Dossier, ALT takes it upon itself to develop alternatives to the most famous fragrances in the world. Theyâve made it their mission to develop products that people will love at a price they can afford.
They work closely with the same fragrance developers as the big brands to recreate the aroma of several bestselling designer colognes out there. And itâll run you less than $50 bucks.
