Cologne for 20-year old DN

DN wants cologne for Xmas. He's got a new girlfriend he's keen to impress, and he's done a lot for me this year so I want to get him something really nice. What's a really nice, sexy cologne for a young man please ?

Lynx Africa.
Sorry, couldn't resist. seriously, Hugo Boss is nice. Dior Sauvage is expensive but lively.

Lovely, not so much lively.

Thanks ODFox. Which Hugo Boss please ? Is there only one ?

Slightly offputting to word it as wanting a 'sexy' cologne for your 20 old DN, but I get what you mean.

If he's asked for it does he not know what he wants? Fragrance is such a personal thing that choosing for him seems potentially a waste of time. I would give a gift voucher for The Perfume Shop (or similar). What's the budget if not?

Dior Sauvage is pretty popular, as are a few of the Paco Rabanne scents, which usually have playful bottles that appeal to younger audiences -eg Invictus or Phantom. Armani Code is nice and very eveningy.

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (if there's a big budget), Prada Luna Rossa Ocean.

@bacon I know, apologies, definitely wrong word! It was his word but it does feels a bit strange coming from me.

Still grateful for any recommendations
