What does Man smell like?

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Voters rate it equally suited to daily wear, leisure and business, with evening and night-out use chosen less often. There are no season votes.

Up top, bergamot's brightness meets the coolness of black pepper and mint. In the heart, lavender, apple and nutmeg add a sweet, spicy turn, while gaiac wood, moss and amber give a woody, earthy base. The overall impression is fresh, fruity and lightly sweet. Burberry Burberry for Men (Eau de Toilette) and Zara Extreme 12.0 have a close profile.
