We all love to treat ourselves every now and then, and perfumes are a great means of indulgence. A new perfume lasts us a good few months, boosts our mood and matches our personality. However, many of us may still want this fragrant indulgence to stay within the confines of a reasonable budget. To help you with this exact endeavour, we bring you 8 best men’s perfumes under INR 2000 that smell luxurious, look great on the vanity, and worth every penny.
1. Tropical Wanderer
If the beach fanatic in you urges you to book tropical escapes every chance you get, the Tales Rio from Skinn By Titan perfectly matches that zeal. Be it the beach fronts of Goa or exotic bays of Rio, this fragrance captures refreshing notes of aqua that’s punctuated by salty breeze. Its top notes make way for earthy, citrusy notes like bergamot tarragon, and lavandin while base notes bring out the aquatic freshness with apple and marine accords. As the day goes by, the fragrance settles into relaxing base notes of patchouli, oak moss and tonka bean to mimic the mossy greens by the beach.
2. Alluringly Sweet
On the receiving end of adoration or want to feel like it? This homegrown multi-tasker should be a front runner on your vanity. Blended with orange and sandalwood extracts, the Forest Aftershave Spray acts a soothing, antibacterial aftershave as well as a body mist that veils you in a mist of sweet, woody, and citrusy notes.
3. Youthfully Zesty
If you’re getting started on your perfume journey, The Ajmal Silver Shade EDP is one of the best men’s perfumes under INR 2000, especially for youngsters. Its top notes of plum, blackcurrant, lime, bergamot, and lemon gives the fragrance a heady, citrusy, and slightly fruity scent that’s perfectly balanced floral heart notes like rose, jasmine, and iris as well as base notes like white musk, cedarwood, and sandalwood. If you’re planning a city excursion or a night of clubbing, a few sprays of this perfume will set the perfect tone to your outing.
4. Sophisticaition, Personified
If the amalgam of quiet, regal luxury and the broody, dark interiors of a high-end club house or tavern had a fragrance, it wouldsmell like Beardo’s Single Malt Whisky Smoke. It’s what we describe as sinfully sensual. The irresistible fragrance is brought to life with top notes of tobacco, whisky, middle notes of vanilla, cinnamon, coriander, base notes of oudh, sandalwood, leather, and patchouli. It’s smokey and woody with a faint sweetness.
5. Cosy & Welcoming
If you love playing host or have an unparalleled talent of giving comforting embraces, consider making this unisex Tonka EPD from Ora d’oro Beauty your go-to perfume. It has a cosy duo of sweet and spicy notes like tonka bean, creamy vanilla, dried lavender, and myrrh. Housed in a minimal, chic clear bottle, this fragrance is a great autumn/winter men’s perfume under INR 2000.
6. Romantic
If you’re one to romanticise the smaller joys in life, this classy-looking vial of attar will gladly punctuate that feeling. You only need a hint of this concentrated perfume oil to last you through the day. It opens to refreshing top notes of marine accords, bergamot and geranium, and eases your senses into middle notes of white flowers, rose, and violet. The attar finally settles into warm base notes of musk and amber.
7. Sharp & Dapper
Amp up your formalwear and black tie events with an irresistible, sensual aura. Aside from its sleek, all-black packaging, we love the tart, citrusy, and floral notes of The Colour Me Homme Black EDP. The subtle yet long-lasting to avoid overwhelming the senses. Just a few sprays on the pulse points and on the collar will elegantly wrap you in citrusy, fruity, and floral notes.
8. Sporty Fresh
If you’re keen on wearing deodorants and like to be out the door in a few minutes, Ajmal India’s non-alcoholic deodorant combo adds a beautiful fragrant flair to your deodorising routine. This combo comes in a pack of four with different renditions of oud blends rose, tobacco, oud, and vanilla that will also give you lasting odour protection.
