What does Dunhill 51.3 N. smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters place it mostly in daily wear, leisure and the office, though evenings and nights out also get a fair share. It reads masculine.

It starts fresh, citrusy and green with ozone, grapefruit and rhubarb. The heart brings pink pepper, black pepper, lavender and cedar, which make it spicy and woody. In the base, sandalwood and vanilla leave a light sweetness and a powdery softness. Histoires de Parfums 1725 and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Terrible have a close profile.
