PowderyWhat does Friday Edition smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, and most voters say it stays on skin for a long time. It is classed as a men's fragrance. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle (Eau de Toilette) and Miro Cabal pour Homme have a close profile.
It starts fresh with aniseed and bergamot, while cardamom adds spice. In the heart, mint, sage and lavender carry that freshness on. The base of cashmere wood, tonka bean and sandalwood sweetens it and settles into a woody, powdery finish.
