What does Speed Legends - Le Mans Classic Spirit smell like?

Sage and bergamot lead, giving a fresh, citrusy, slightly green start. Blackcurrant adds a soft fruity note in the heart. The base of tonka bean, amberwood and vetiver settles into a woody, lightly sweet ground, with aquatic and spicy touches staying in the background.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and see it as suited to daily wear, leisure and the office; most call it masculine, with some finding it classic. Fragrance World Zero to Legend and Loewe 7 Cobalt have a close profile.
