What does Hei (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

The opening pairs the green coolness of bamboo leaf and bergamot with aquatic notes. The heart brings a soft floral touch from neroli, lavender and jasmine, with fennel and cardamom adding a light spice. In the base, mahogany, cedarwood and crystal musk give it a woody footing, while tonka bean and amber sweeten it slightly.

Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it leaves a light but noticeable trail. Most voters find it masculine, though many also call it modern. Chopard Heaven and Christian Provenzano Inspirato have a close profile.
