What does Le Dandy pour Homme (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top is fruity and sweet, with pineapple, peach, plum and whisky. Cardamom, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger bring the spice in the heart. The base of tonka bean, benzoin, patchouli, sandalwood, tobacco and Peru balsam turns resinous, smoky and woody.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It reads masculine and classic. Serge Lutens Arabie and Franck Boclet Tobacco have a close profile.
