What does Le Mâle On Board smell like?

Bergamot brings the brightness, geranium adds a green, lightly spicy touch, and tonka bean softens the sweetness and rounds the scent off. The overall feel is fresh and fruity, with a spicy trace underneath.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. It reads masculine and modern. Yves Rocher Hoggar and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Aviator have a close profile.
