What does The Scent Parfum Edition for Him smell like?

It opens with ginger, fresh and spicy. In the heart, maninka fruit brings a fruity sweetness while orris concrete adds a powdery, creamy softness. Leather and patchouli form a woody, leathery base; overall it leans oriental, sweet and slightly synthetic.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small. Voters mostly pick it for leisure and nights out, with business wear following. It reads masculine. Its profile is close to The Scent for Him (Eau de Toilette) and The Scent Intense for Him.
