What does Borntostandout® smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick spring and fall, though winter has a fair share too; leisure and daily wear lead the occasions, with evening and business close behind. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, sitting somewhere between the two, and voters call it modern.

Geranium and bergamot give it a fresh start. In the heart, rose, pepper and Akigalawood® turn it floral and spicy. The base of tobacco, leather, amber and cedarwood adds a sweet, smoky, woody footing with a creamy softness.
