Bay Rum is a pretty universal go-to when looking for default masculine smells, a mix of actual rum and the bay tree in the west indies. Nowadays it’s artificially produced so YMMV.
Modern flavor science mixes leather, woods, salt, industrial tones, oil, plants and liquor for masculine products to mixed effect. (again YMMV) My wife actually prefers some for men products since she finds sweet fruit and flower scents overbearing.
Sadly Mrs. Meyers only makes Iowa Pine in cleaning products and then in limited runs during winter holiday season. Their flavorists really nailed it. Duke Cannon’s Illegally Cut Pine is a passable alternative.
