SpicyWhat does Classic (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with star anise, bergamot, lavender and orange, while basil and juniper berry add a green edge. In the heart, orange blossom, ginger and lotus soften the scent. The base of benzoin, sandalwood and white musk leaves a sweet, woody finish.
Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Most see it as masculine. Montblanc Starwalker and Mexx Mexx Man have a close profile.
