What does Signature (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top notes of bergamot, lemon and lavender give a bright start, with cedarwood adding a dry woody edge from the first spray. Coriander and nutmeg bring spice in the heart. In the base, vetiver, sandalwood, musk and amber soften it into a sweet, powdery finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters spread their picks fairly evenly across the four seasons, with spring and fall slightly ahead. Daily wear and leisure are the most common occasions, and it also suits the office and evenings. It is classed as a men's fragrance. English Laundry Arrogant and The Body Shop White Musk for Men have a close profile.
