Fragrance Jumbos for Guys

Fragrance Jumbos for Dad

When it comes to a man’s favourite fragrance, bigger is definitely better. That’s the message from the latest global scent sales reports that track designer colognes in more than two dozen key countries. Consumers are choosing “jumbo” bottles of their fragrances: 150 ml or 200 ml sizes.

“We know that male consumers are much more loyal to their favourite brands and fragrances,” explains an industry analyst. “It’s the same in fashion. Guys will find a brand they feel good in and will stay loyal for many, many years. Women, on the other hand, are much more open to trying new brands and products. They jump from brand-to-brand.”

This Father’s Day, you’ll see retailers responding to this trend by promoting upsized bottles of their top-selling men’s fragrances like Versace, Montblanc and Coach.

“Guys also tend to shop less often than women so they stock up on their favourites when they do visit a store. A jumbo-sized fragrance is quick and easy. And it means he doesn’t have to shop again for a while.”

Here are seven Jumbo-sized men’s fragrance bottles available for Father’s Day.
