What does Born Original Today for Him smell like?
It opens with lime, elemi resin and mandarin orange for a citrusy freshness. In the heart, orange blossom, coriander and cinnamon bring a spicy, lightly sweet side. In the base, amber, sandalwood and tree moss settle it onto a creamy, woody footing, so the overall impression is fresh but leaning towards a gourmand sweetness.
Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of ratings is small, so this is not a firm verdict. It is presented as a men's fragrance. Its profile is close to Snif Soda Snob and Afnan Perfumes 9pm.
