What does Homme de Grès (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Bergamot and neroli give it a bright, slightly green freshness, while jasmine and peach pull that freshness toward something floral and faintly fruity. Sandalwood, amber and musk build a powdery, resinous and warm base underneath. Spicy and leathery touches stay in the background, and the chypre structure gives the whole a classic line.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage moderate, so it is noticed up close without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Most voters read it as masculine. Dior Cologne Royale and Penhaligon's Jubilee Bouquet have a close profile.
