What does L'Être Aimé Homme smell like?

The top is fresh and herbal, with ginger, lavender, bergamot and basil. The heart brings celery, immortelle absolute and cardamom, adding a dry spiciness. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, cistus, patchouli and amber settles into an earthy, resinous, slightly leathery woodiness.

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate. Fall and spring are the most recommended seasons, with winter and summer not far behind. It suits leisure time and evenings, and most voters read it as masculine and classic. Azzaro pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Ulrich Lang Nightscape have a close profile.
