What does Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme (2012) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind; few choose winter. Leisure, daytime and business use lead, while evening and night out sit further back. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters mostly call it masculine and classic.

It opens with mandarin orange, bergamot and neroli, which give a bright, fresh citrus start. In the heart, lavender, sage and pepper add a green, spicy fougère feel. In the base, tobacco, tonka bean and cedarwood sweeten it slightly and settle it onto a woody ground. Dolce & Gabbana Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme (1994) and Guerlain Frenchy Lavande / Le Frenchy have a close profile.
