What does The One Gentleman (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, with summer well behind. Evening, business, leisure and daily wear get almost equal votes, so it isn't tied to one setting. Most voters read it as masculine and modern.

The top is grapefruit and pepper, bringing coolness with a slight bite. Fennel, cardamom and lavender in the heart make a spicy, aromatic transition. Vanilla and patchouli at the base sweeten it into a gourmand, powdery softness. Zara For Him and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Le Parfum have a close profile.
