What does Good Life for Men (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Longevity and sillage both rate as good. In the character votes, masculine leads, with classic and modern close behind.

The top opens fresh, green and fruity, with fig leaf, blackcurrant and melon beside the citrus. In the heart, magnolia and violet add a soft floral touch. The base of tea, sandalwood and amber settles it into a sweet, woody finish.
