French Avenue Haydan is a sweet, woody scent for men that sets the freshness of lavender and bergamot against a warm, spicy core of saffron, leather and oud.

What does Haydan smell like?

Haydan's longevity and sillage are rated strong, with most voters scoring both high, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is not settled. It is classed as a masculine fragrance, and its spicy, oriental build suits anyone who wants a noticeable trail through the day.

It opens with clary sage, lavender and bergamot for a fresh start. In the heart, saffron, cedarwood and praliné come forward, with the sweetness held in check by spice. The base of leather, vetiver, patchouli, oud and musk settles into an earthy, woody finish.
