The best Fulton & Roark scent for men is: Ramble.
Do you like to hike? Or maybe to fish? To smell like a man who knows how to do all of these things, in the privacy of the forest? If the answer is yes, there is only one Fulton & Roark scent for you, and that scent is Ramble.
Fulton & Roark is an American fragrance brand, and it smells like it: They are designed to make real men smell good, or at least better than they would otherwise. The scents are, to my nose, less finessed than their European counterparts, and less feminine as well, even if a healthy percentage (about 35%) of Fulton and Roark shoppers are, indeed, women. Consider the Feu de Bois candle from Diptyque, a gorgeous, heavy, masculine scent, one designed to make your home smell like the best possible version of a ski resort. It’s masculine to unisex, leaning toward the latter. Ramble is the same, just without some of Feu de Bois’s Parisian delicacy. Ramble is manliness, just better. It makes me think of: Jack London, Patagonia models, Robert Grainger at the end of train dreams. A man who lives in nature and appropriately smells like it, but better.
From the brand: “Ramble opens with the fresh and inviting notes of Balsam Fir needles that intermingle with the earthy and mossy notes of Oakmoss and Bamboo Leaf to create an accord that evokes the smell of a lush forest.”
I say: Picture an Abercrombie model standing topless in front of a mountain in Oregon, and you have it conjured with 0% deviation. This is Ramble. It’s the one that made my clothes, several days later, smell best, and for that, I loved it.
Two runners up:
Fulton & Roark Calle Ocho Review
They say: “Calle Ocho begins with the multifaceted notes of fine aged Rum: the swirling combination of woody Amber, Oak Wood, and Bourbon-like Vanilla.”
This was is super light and bright and if we’re being literal about it a very suitable fragrance for a beach trip. Rumrunner vibes.
Fulton & Roark Cloudland Review
They say: “Cloudland is our homage to the experience of a summer rainstorm, and the intimacy of human touch.”
This review that said it was like a Bath & Body Works candle named Sea Breeze, which is damning but appropriate. It’s unobtrusive, light, bright — a sunny Sunday morning (despite the cloudy name).
