What does Coriolan (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, though summer has its share. Daytime and business wear lead, with evening and night out further behind. Many call it masculine and classic.

It opens with neroli, petitgrain, lemon and bergamot for a fresh citrus feel, with sage adding a green edge. Juniper, nutmeg, coriander and ginger bring a dry, spicy bite through the middle. It settles on vetiver, leather, patchouli and oakmoss, an earthy, leathery chypre finish. Guerlain L'Âme d'un Héros and Hermès Rocabar have a close profile.
