What does Rocabar (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It lasts well and sits at a moderate sillage, staying fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick autumn and spring, with summer the least favored season. It suits daily wear and the office, and most voters call it masculine and classic.

The top is bergamot, lemon, juniper and coriander, cool and slightly bitter. The heart brings cardamom, carnation, violet, cypress and cedar, a floral-spicy woodiness. The base of fir, benzoin, patchouli, vanilla and oakmoss leaves a resinous, earthy, lightly sweet floor. Rochas Globe and Ralph Lauren Safari for Men have a close profile.
