What does No Regrets (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

The opening pairs mandarin orange and galbanum, a fruity freshness with a sharp green edge, softened by ylang-ylang and osmanthus. In the heart, lily, neroli, gardenia, tuberose and iris take over, and the floral accord forms the backbone of the scent. The base of vetiver, moss, tolu balm, musk and sandalwood adds a woody, resinous and faintly smoky ground, with spicy and animal touches staying in the background. Its profile is close to Ralph Lauren Tuxedo and Robert Piguet Bandit.
