Jeanne Arthes Legend pairs orange, lemon and grapefruit with a peppery, earthy heart of black pepper, vetiver and patchouli, and it is a men's fragrance that has been discontinued.

What does Legend smell like?

Legend has moderate longevity and moderate sillage. Most voters pick fall and spring, while summer and winter trail behind. Daily wear, the office and leisure lead, and evenings or nights out are chosen less often.

It opens with bright, fresh citrus. In the heart, black pepper and vetiver join patchouli and geranium for a green, earthy feel. The base of leathery notes, benzoin and oakmoss dries down woody and leathery. La Rive The Hero and Hermès Terre d'Hermès (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
