What does He Wood Cologne smell like?

It opens bright and lightly spicy with mandarin orange, lemon and ginger, while silver fir and musk add a green coolness. In the heart, aquatic notes meet violet and violet leaf, keeping the floral side soft and green. Vetiver and cedarwood leave a dry, earthy woody trace at the base.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, with autumn not far behind, and it leans towards daily, leisure and office wear. It reads masculine and modern. Dsquared² He Wood and Oriflame Nordic Waters for Him have a close profile.
