# All-Occasion Musky Floral Colognes Double Take by Notewrks Challenges Cologne Conventions By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2026-07-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/double-take-by-notewrks References: [snif.co](https://snif.co/en-ca/pages/notewrks-launch-waitlist) & [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/DbLlKAdRpxE/)  Double Take by Notewrks is the new all-occasion musky floral cologne joining a range of fragrances for men that challenge traditional cologne with an accessibly priced, mood-matching experience. Double Take defies convention with notes of orange blossom, apricot, a sesame milk accord, sandalwood and Orcanox, all of which come together to captivate and keep attention. As Snif's cologne-focused sub-brand, Notewrks specializes in fragrances "designed to be worn like your favorite songs on repeat" and creates scent-matched playlists. The first few tracks on the mix curated for Double Take include Texas Sun by Khruangbin and Leon Bridges and Got Caught in Amsterdam by Arc De Soleil, expressing the beauty and quiet confidence of curated taste. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 7.2/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 85% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Mood-matched Fragrance:** Personal scent products are evolving into emotional styling tools, creating space for brands to link fragrance selection with identity, occasions, and daily state of mind. - **Gender-fluid Colognes:** Traditional masculine fragrance codes are being disrupted by floral, creamy, and soft notes that broaden appeal beyond conventional men’s cologne expectations. - **Playlist-paired Scent:** Music-connected fragrance storytelling blends sensory categories, allowing brands to build richer cultural associations and more memorable product experiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fragrance:** Accessible niche-style colognes with unconventional note structures are reshaping premium perception and opening opportunities for experimental mass-market positioning. - **Personal Care:** Everyday grooming products are becoming more expressive and lifestyle-driven, expanding the role of scent as part of personal presentation and self-definition. - **Music Streaming:** Scent-matched playlists point to new cross-industry partnerships where audio platforms can support product discovery through mood, taste, and curated atmosphere. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vegetal Colognes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegetal-colognes.md) - [Luxury Fragrance Gift Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woody-wagon-colognes.md) - [Stop-Motion Fragrance Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-chef-and-jo-malone-london.md) - [Lightweight Cologne Mists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheiroso.md) - [Anime Travel Case Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rimowa-x-pokmon.md) - [Versatile Men's Grooming Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cypress-grapevine.md) - [3d Printer Technology Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kobra-x.md) - [Status Symbol Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b-m-w-a-black-mans-wish.md) - [Celeb-Approved Cologne Launches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-cologne.md)
