What does L'Anarchiste (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Mint and orange blossom come first, and the accords lean fresh, citrus and green, with a fruity, sweet softness alongside. In the heart, Bourbon vetiver and Indian sandalwood give the scent a woody body, and musk with gaiac wood dries it down on a spicy, woody base.

Most voters pick fall and spring, and it is worn for leisure and daily use as well as business. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Half of voters call it masculine, and a good number find it classic. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Beau Mâle and Halston Halston Man (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
