What Cologne Should You Wear Based on Your Birth Month?

Some people say that your birth month influences your life and that those born in a particular month often share similar characteristics.

If you want to explore this idea, why not choose a cologne based on the month you were born? Cologne is a great way to express your personality and emphasize the traits you find important. You can find a new favorite cologne by trying a fragrance that ties into the concept of birthday flowers and the traits they embody.
