What does Aramis Gentleman smell like?

It opens with ginger, black pepper and grape leaf, then turns spicy and woody in the heart with saffron, oregano and Atlas cedar. The base holds myrrh, tobacco, Haitian vetiver and amber, so the citrus freshness gradually gives way to a warm, leathery woodiness.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, followed by summer, while winter comes last. It is chosen mainly for daytime, business and leisure, less for evenings and nights. It reads masculine and classic. Boss Bottled Beyond and Xerjoff Torino25 have a close profile.
