Solid scents

A novel kind of cologne made by the Duke Cannon Supply Co. is in the form of a soft paste in a small metal container. I don't know about the quality of the scents but it has the advantage of avoiding the liquid limits for carry-on luggage. Available in Canada from Fendrihan.

Bespoke Cologne

Like bespoke tailoring, colognes and perfumes can be custom formulated for the individual. Most noted is Floris of London already recognized by their fine lines of perfumes.

Permanent Style has a good article on the venture into a custom scent, and Kirby Allison as an excellent video on his visit to Floris and his walk through the process of having a bespoke scent created.
