What does Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office; few choose it for evenings. Most see it as masculine.

The scent is dominated by a fresh, citrusy feel. The greenness of citrus leaf is softened by the spicy warmth of cardamom, while cedarwood lays a dry, woody base underneath. A floral touch stays in the background, and a synthetic edge is noticeable too. Zara 28°35′46″N 83°49′13″E and Roger & Gallet L'Homme Cèdre have a close profile.
