FougèreWhat does Drakkar (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with juniper, mandarin orange, lemon, bergamot and lavender, bright and sharp. In the heart, jasmine, spices, pine and cedarwood add a woody, slightly earthy weight, and musk, moss and ambergris carry it to a warm, balanced finish.
More than half of voters call it masculine, and some also find it classic. Votes spread fairly evenly across spring, summer and fall, pointing to daily wear and the office. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Adidas Adidas and Weil Kipling have a close profile.
