Dollar Shave Club is Getting into the Fragrance Field with New Line of Blueprint Cologne

The brand that made the act of shaving an easier, more affordable venture for all of us has taken its expertise even further. With the launch of Blueprint Fine Fragrances, Dollar Shave Club can now check off the fragrance box in its men’s grooming arsenal.

The Dollar Shave Club Blueprint cologne line features six premium scents split into two collections – Fresh and Warm. Its conception was formed in collaboration with fragrance world Hall-0f-Famer Ann Gottlieb, aka “The Nose.”

Gottlieb has worked with high-end brands such as Estee Lauder, Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs, and Dior, helping them to develop some of the top-selling, lasting scents on the market today. Her expertise, along with Dollar Shave Club’s dedication to providing men with all their grooming needs, has resulted in a line of fragrances packed with ingredients that provoke particular emotions and memories.

Its wide array of scents offers plenty of versatility to assure you smell your best in the moments you need it most. So, whether you need something to get you through your work day feeling fresh or a tantalizing scent for a night out to dinner, the Dollar Shave Club cologne line has all your bases covered.

Each member of the Dollar Shave Club cologne line is free of all the B.S. — no synthetic dyes, no parabens, no sulfates. The Blueprint Fine Fragrances will be listed at $50 and made available on Dollar Shave Club’s website on Friday, November 16.

Here’s a rundown of all the scents broken up by each collection.
