What does FM 199 smell like?

The top pairs Italian mandarin orange with peppermint: the mandarin brings a fruity sweetness, the peppermint a cool edge. The heart holds cinnamon, cardamom and Turkish rose, where the warmth of the spices meets the soft floral note. Leathery notes sit in the base, and the whole turns oriental and woody.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. The sweet, spicy character suits men looking for a fuller, gourmand style. Its profile is close to Rabanne 1 Million Absolutely Gold and Rabanne 1 Million Intense.
