What does Marte (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with bergamot, petitgrain, basil and Tunisian rosemary, which give a bright, herbal start. In the heart, Grasse jasmine, Madagascan clove and pimento add a floral and spicy warmth. The base settles onto dry, woody ground of Bourbon vetiver and Atlas cedar.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these figures are tentative. With its classic masculine character it sits close to everyday wear. Battistoni Marte Concentrée and Loewe pour Homme share a close profile.
