What does Hearts & Daggers for Men smell like?

The top is pear, martini and basil, and the heart brings papaya, white pepper and rosemary. A fruity sweetness runs alongside the aquatic, citrus freshness, while white pepper and rosemary add a spicy edge. The base of patchouli, suede, sandalwood and katsura wood settles it onto a woody footing.

It is a men's fragrance. Its longevity and sillage are rated weak, though with few votes this is only a rough guide. Versace Blue Jeans and Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Cologne Gingembre have a close profile.
