OrientalWhat does Armand Basi Homme (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with cinnamon, cardamom and lavender, with aromatic notes keeping the start fresh. In the heart, lilac and lily of the valley add a soft floral touch while tonka bean and nutmeg bring a sweet, spicy warmth. Vanilla, musk, cedarwood and sandalwood settle the base into a woody, powdery finish.
Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with evenings also in the mix. Most voters read it as masculine. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle and Burberry Brit for Him have a close profile.
