What does L'Homme Idéal Sport smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate: it sits closer to the skin than a room-filling scent. Daily wear, office and sport lead the occasions, while evening and night out play a small part. Most voters read it as masculine, with a good share calling it modern.

The top holds almond, spices and aquatic notes, and fresh, aquatic and citrus accords lead. Neroli sits in the heart, with patchouli, coumarin and vetiver underneath. Coumarin and almond add a gentle sweetness, while vetiver and patchouli give it a woody base.
