What does Authentic Moment Man smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, with winter and summer a little behind. Leisure and daily wear lead, and it also works for the office. Voters read it as masculine and modern.
The top is bergamot, apple, cypress and cinnamon: fresh, fruity and lightly spiced. Neroli in the heart adds a soft floral touch. The base of musk, sandalwood, amberwood and vanilla makes it sweet and woody. Dunhill Desire for a Man (Eau de Toilette) and Lacoste Pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
