How does it perform?
From 91 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Looks good without trying too hard.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

Most voters pick fall, then winter, and evening and night out are the most named occasions. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, with some calling it modern. It has been discontinued.
Bergamot gives a brief fresh opening, then cocoa and rhubarb bring a sweet, slightly tart heart. In the base, tonka bean and woody notes soften it into a spicy, earthy warmth. The overall impression is sweet, fruity and oriental. Perfumes with a close profile include Playboy VIP for Him and Carolina Herrera 212 Glam Men.
