What does L'Uomo smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn, then spring, and leisure and business wear lead the occasions. Most voters read it as masculine, with some calling it modern.

It opens with bergamot, cardamom, black pepper and ginger, a lively spicy start. In the heart, violet, sage and green apple add a floral, fruity freshness. The base brings vanilla sweetness together with sandalwood and cedar. Jovoy Les 7 Parfums Capitaux - Oriental and Montblanc Présence (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
