How does it perform?
From 21 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Monocle Scent Five: Syros smell like?
It opens with turmeric, Spanish white thyme and rosemary, which read herbal, spicy and slightly bitter. In the heart, vetiver and everlasting flower absolute pull it toward an earthy, floral side, while Indonesian patchouli and white musk settle it onto a woody, faintly smoky base.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters recommend fall and spring, and name leisure and business as the main occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are close. Hermès Eau de Gentiane Blanche and Murdock Vetiver have a similar profile.
