Jacques Bogart One Man Show Eau de Toilette is a classic-leaning men's fragrance that sets the green freshness of grapefruit, bergamot and galbanum against woody, resinous cedar, patchouli and cistus.

What does One Man Show (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and it is mostly worn for leisure, daily use and the office. Most voters call it masculine and classic, so it reads as a men's scent.

It opens green and fresh with grapefruit, bergamot, basil and galbanum, softened by ylang-ylang, jasmine and rose. In the heart, Lebanon cedar, patchouli, sandalwood and nutmeg build a woody, spicy body. The base of cistus and labdanum leaves a resinous, smoky warmth. Van Cleef & Arpels Pour Homme and Puig Quorum have a close profile.
