What does Viking Cologne smell like?

Calabrian bergamot, mandarin orange and Sicilian lemon open brightly, and pink pepper adds a light edge. In the heart, French lavender, sage and rosemary bring a green, herbal feel, while nutmeg softens it with spice. Patchouli, vetiver and cedarwood settle the scent onto a woody base.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, business and daily wear. Many voters find it masculine and classic, though it is sold as unisex. Creed Bois du Portugal and Acqua di Parma Colonia Futura have a close profile.
