What does Barbour for Him (2021) smell like?

Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind and summer rarely chosen. Leisure, night out and evening wear come up most often. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters read it as masculine.

It opens with citrus notes, while black pepper, pink pepper and cardamom give the heart its spice. The base holds amber, vetiver, cedar, musk and gaiac wood. The overall feel is green and woody, softened by a sweet, gourmand touch. French Avenue Spectre Ghost and John Richmond for Men have a close profile.
