What does Fahrenheit Cologne smell like?

The citrus leads, with French violet adding a floral touch and Haitian vetiver and Virginia cedar forming a woody base. Nutmeg and caraway bring a spicy edge, while Indonesian patchouli stays in the background. The overall feel is green, aquatic and slightly leathery.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and office use lead the occasions. Most voters read it as masculine. Maison Francis Kurkdjian masculin Pluriel and Memo Paris Ocean Leather have a close profile.
