What does Patou pour Homme (2013) smell like?

The top is citrusy and bright, with bergamot and lemon, while galbanum and pepper add a green, spicy edge. In the heart, tarragon, lavender, jasmine and rose bring the floral side. The base of ambergris, patchouli, frankincense and leather gives it a woody, resinous and slightly smoky footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and business, leisure and evening wear score close together. Voters mostly read it as masculine, with classic second. Montana Black Edition and Acqua di Baviera Nero Uomo share a close profile.
