What does I Love New York for Fathers smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, business and leisure lead the occasions. Most voters read it as masculine.

The opening is cool, with lime, coriander and basil. The heart of grapefruit blossom, lavender and sage adds a floral, green note, and musk, amber and tree moss in the base soften it and sweeten it slightly. Khadlaj Shiyaaka (Blue) and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Beau Mâle have a close profile.
