What does Alpha Man smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, spring and summer, with winter further behind. Daily wear, leisure and business are the most chosen settings. Montagne Parfums Eden and Perroy IvorySky have a close profile.

Neroli and bergamot open with a bright citrus freshness. In the heart, cedarwood and vetiver add a dry, woody tone. The base turns gourmand and creamy through tonka bean and the sensual skin accord, while patchouli and sandalwood bring a warm, woody-spicy depth.
