What does Curve for Men (Cologne) smell like?

It opens bright and fruity with neroli, pineapple, lavender and lemon. Coriander, cardamom and ginger bring a spicy touch to the heart. Vetiver, sandalwood and amber settle into a sweet, woody base, with a slightly synthetic sparkle running through the accords.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear. It reads masculine yet modern. La Rive Blue Line and Hugo Boss Boss Bottled (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
