What does Century smell like?

Bergamot, grapefruit and mandarin orange give it a bright citrus freshness. Cardamom and neroli pull that freshness towards spicy and floral tones, while sandalwood and cypriol lay a woody base. Frankincense and musk soften it, and the green, fresh accords shape the overall feel.

Most voters recommend it for spring and summer, with fall not far behind. Leisure, business and daily use score almost equally. Its longevity and sillage are rated good, and most voters call it masculine and classic. Paul Smith Extreme Men and Dior Cologne Royale have a close profile.
