What does Allure Homme (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Voters find its longevity good and its sillage moderate, so it makes itself felt without filling a room. Fall and spring lead, with summer and winter not far behind. Daytime, office and leisure wear are chosen more often than evening. Most voters call it masculine or classic.

Fresh citrus and lavender come first, while ginger and mandarin orange add a light spicy, fruity edge. In the heart, patchouli, vetiver and cedar give a woody line, softened by jasmine and rose. In the base, amber, vanilla and tonka bean sweeten it, while leather and oakmoss keep it dry underneath.
