What does About Men (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It lasts a moderate time and sits close to the skin. Most voters suggest spring and fall, with summer not far behind, and it is mostly chosen for leisure, daytime and office wear. Nearly half of voters call it masculine, and many also see it as modern.
Apple and grapefruit give it a bright, fruity opening, while jasmine and lily add a soft floral touch in the middle. Amber and tonka bean sweeten the base and leave a warm, woody-oriental finish. Star Wars Empire Man and Laura Biagiotti Romamor Uomo have a close profile.
