The 9 Best New Colognes to Wear This Fall

The days are getting shorter, the air is crisper, and knits and coats will soon be out in full force. There’s something about wearing our favorite (and new) colognes when the weather cools that allows them to resonate. Colder temperatures slow evaporation, letting prominent scent notes cut through the crisp air, and fall fragrances tend to be warmer, richer and more resinous. The “woodsy” category is vast and incredibly versatile based on its placement in a scent pyramid, and fall is when this family takes center stage. Fragrance houses unveil their new, seasonally crafted compositions, and these rich, complex notes form the backbone of cold-weather colognes, making fall the season to embrace deeper, more intricate fragrances.

This fall, exciting new launches from established brands and indie luxe houses take center stage, and we’ve curated a list of nine standout cool-weather scents. While we could easily go on for days, these must-try fragrances are sure to complement your autumn vibe. So, spritz a cologne, put on a record and embrace the “ber” months — aka the best months.

The YouTube Guide to Travel

There's perhaps no place on the internet — at least as far as video-sharing platforms go — where you’re likely to get more credible, authentic and practical travel content than on YouTube.

It’s here that you can follow along for years with couples sailing around the globe on a catamaransolo backpackers traversing entire continents and the children of nomadic families growing up. Where you can find a five-minute clip detailing all the things you shouldn’t put in your checked luggage, or a 40-minute one about what it’s like to stay at Japan’s most isolated hotel. And if you’ve ever wondered about the world’s greatest airplane seat, or wanted to live vicariously through a digital nomad? That’s on YouTube, too.

That’s not to say that all YouTube travel content is created equal. It can take some parsing through to get to the really good stuff, same as every other platform. Fortunately, I’ve gone ahead and done at least some of the grunt work. Here, seven of the best travel YouTubers you, a discerning traveler, should know about.

Mark Wolters Is Still the Most Honest Travel Guide on the Internet

BY LINDSAY ROGERS

In 2009, at a time when my friends and I were sending videos like “Charlie Bit Me,” “Grape Lady” and “Shoes” back and forth to each other incessantly, Mark Wolters had already set about establishing himself as one of the preeminent travel vloggers on YouTube. Fifteen years later, he’s still at it.

I’ve now interviewed the 47-year-old Illinois native twice in as many years. “You know I am always here to help,” he tells me when I reach out again. “Let me know what I can do to help.”

If you’re familiar with Mark’s work, it’s an unsurprising sentiment. It’s the ethos from which he’s built his brand — the most plausible explanation for why, even after all this time, his channel Wolters World still surfaces dozens of times in response to a question about best travel bloggers posted to r/TravelNoPics — a subreddit that purports to be “pretty much the anti-Instagram.”
