What does _but not today_ smell like?

It opens fresh and herbal with lemon, bergamot, artemisia and lavender. In the heart, calamus, rosemary and styrax set that freshness on a spicy, resinous footing. The base dries down with oakmoss, sandalwood, amber and musk, while floral and animal touches stay in the background.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters recommend fall, spring and winter, with summer well behind. Leisure and evening are the favoured occasions; it reads somewhat masculine, though many find it feminine or modern. Arrogance Arrogance pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Diego Dalla Palma Aqualambara have a close profile.
