What does Dia Man smell like?

The opening brings frankincense, cardamom, bitter orange and labdanum, fresh and resinous at once. In the heart, iris, plum blossom, ylang-ylang and peony add a soft, powdery floral layer. The base of vetiver, leather, patchouli and amber leaves a woody, sweet and faintly smoky trail.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and daily, evening and business wear are close together. It is mostly seen as masculine and classic. Amouage Opus I and Versace Man (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
