What does Pour Homme smell like?

Citrus comes first, then the spicy edge of nutmeg, clove and coriander seed. In the heart, Provençal lavender, cedarwood and jasmine lead; the base of vetiver, sandalwood, patchouli and oakmoss absolute dries down into a woody, earthy chypre. The overall impression is fresh, green and classic.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure, daily wear and business are the most chosen settings. Most voters find it masculine and classic. Lacoste Original and Chanel Platinum Égoïste have a close profile.
