What does American Dream smell like?

The top opens bright and clean with basil, lemon, bergamot and orange. In the heart, jasmine, lavender and petitgrain add a soft floral, herbal note, with tonka bean sweetening it slightly. Patchouli, vetiver and moss settle into an earthy, woody base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, and leisure and business get the most votes for occasions. Voters mostly call it masculine and classic. La Rive Brutal Classic Intense and Etro New Tradition (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
