What does Uomo (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with Italian lemon, dried apricot and davana, then moves through labdanum, cedarwood, rose and wisteria into a floral, woody heart. The base of ambergris, suede, oud, chocolate and amber turns warm and sweet, while the fresh, fruity and spicy accords stay in play throughout.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it suits leisure time, evenings and nights out. Most see it as masculine, though some find it classic or modern. Its profile is close to The Dua Brand 1 and Only and Scentologia Syn.ergy.
