SpicyWhat does Custo Man smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, nights out and daily wear. Most voters find it masculine and modern.
It opens with neroli, juniper, bergamot and lemon for a fresh, citrusy start. The heart of vervain, black pepper and orange blossom adds a floral, spicy turn. In the base, musk, benzoin, tonka bean and cistus settle it into a powdery, sweet warmth. Kilian Prelude to Love Invitation and Guerlain Cologne du Parfumeur have a similar profile.
