What does Colonial Club Ypsos smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it suits a light, airy scent for everyday wear. It is classed as a men's fragrance. Voters rate it highly for value, though the vote count is small, so this is not a firm verdict.

It opens with grapefruit and bergamot brightness, lifted by a light spice from pink pepper. In the heart, lavender, rhubarb and geranium add a soft floral, fruity touch, while the aquatic and sweet accents support that mood. The base of vetiver, patchouli and amber settles it onto a woody footing. Armaf Magnificent pour Homme Blu and DKNY DKNY Men Summer 2019 have a close profile.
