WoodyWhat does Bora Bora for Men (Cologne) smell like?
It opens with kiwi, lemon and bergamot, a bright, fruity start. Hibiscus and lavender form a green, floral heart. In the base, musk, leather and cedar settle the scent onto a woody footing, with spicy and synthetic touches among its accords.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though those ratings come from only a few voters. It is classed as a men's fragrance. Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Sport and Givenchy Play Sport have a close profile.
