What does Yatagan (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, while summer gets a small share. It leans towards evenings and leisure wear, and voters call its character masculine and classic.

It opens with galbanum, bergamot and tarragon in a sharp, green start, with lavender and petitgrain carrying that mood on. In the heart, vetiver, patchouli and pine needle dominate, while carnation and jasmine soften the spice. The base settles on oakmoss, leather, amber and labdanum, dry, earthy and smoky. Rochas Macassar and Nina Ricci Phileas have a close profile.
