What does X-Centric (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with cardamom, cypress, clary sage, grapefruit and nutmeg, and freesia, rose and lotus bring a soft floral heart. The base of gaiac wood, sandalwood, cedar, patchouli, musk and amber settles into a woody, slightly sweet ground. Aquatic and green touches keep it airy.

Most voters pick spring and summer, and winter is barely chosen. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most voted occasions. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters mostly call it masculine and modern. Its profile is close to Carolina Herrera 212 Men and Burberry Mr. Burberry.
