If you know you've got a date in a few days' time, you may want to book in for a haircut or for a beard trimming. These are little touches that will let your date know that you've put time and effort into your appearance, something they'll appreciate.
Find the Perfect Fragrance
If you've got one signature scent, then you might choose to wear this for your date. If you like to experiment and try new things, however, then you can have fun finding the most fitting fragrance based on what type of date you've got planned.
