What does Roadster (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily, leisure and business wear lead the occasions. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, with some calling it modern and others classic.

As a whole it smells fresh, citrusy and green. Bergamot and mint carry the freshness, while patchouli, vetiver and cashmere wood build a woody base. Labdanum and vanilla soften it slightly, and the spicy accord keeps its fougère feel.
