PowderyWhat does Le 3ᵉ Homme (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with mandarin orange, lemon and bergamot, a fresh, sharp citrus layer. In the heart, clove, coriander and lavender bring a spicy, floral warmth. Vetiver and oakmoss close it out on a woody, green base with a touch of sweetness.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Most describe it as masculine and classic. Harry Lehmann Eau de Berlin and Penhaligon's Eau de Verveine have a close profile.
