In respect to scent, what EOs do men usually like?

I find that men seem to like the citrus smells like Bergamot, Mandarin, Orange and Lemon and the woody smells like Sandalwood, Cedarwood, and Cypress most. Some men also like some floral oils like Lavender, Jasmine and Ylang Ylang, and some herby oils like Sage as well. Spicy oils like Ginger and Black Pepper work well in blends for men too. It really depends on the man though. There are some neat colour wheels that help decide which scent people like most. Do a search online and maybe you can find something like that. If you choose a wheel made of certain shades or colours or even more than one wheel, it gives you some insight into someone's preferred scents.

I was thinking something along the lines of Bergamot, Sandlewood, Cedarwood and Black Pepper. Perhaps I'll add the others you mentioned to my list. Thanks for giving me a better start!

My husband likes citrus (especially grapefruit) and woody herbs, like sage and rosemary. He likes more floral scents (such as rose and lavendar) on me but not in, say, room sprays.
