What does Le Mâle Aviator smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring, followed by summer and fall, while winter lags behind. Business and leisure are the top occasions. Most voters find it masculine, and some call it modern.

Bergamot and violet leaf give it a fresh, green feel. Geranium carries that greenness on, tonka bean adds sweetness and sandalwood lays a woody base. The accords lean spicy and fougère, with a slightly synthetic shine. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle On Board and Bentley Momentum Intense have a close profile.
