What does Euphoria Essence Men smell like?

It opens cool and fresh with minerals, Italian bergamot and ivy. The heart brings white pepper, jasmine and suede, adding a spicy, leathery edge. The base of tonka bean, gaiac wood and amber settles into a sweet, woody, resinous warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of ratings is small, so those figures are tentative. It reads as a masculine scent, fresh and sweet at once. Parfums de Marly Layton and John Varvatos Vintage have a close profile.
