PowderyWhat does Jil Sander Man (2007) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Jil Sander Man opens with bergamot, violet and lavender, a fresh, floral start. Vetiver and sage take over in the heart, while cedar and myrrh build a woody, faintly smoky base. Sweet and powdery touches run through the accords, with spice staying in the background.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and summer is the least chosen. Daily, business and leisure wear lead the occasions, and most voters read it as masculine. Montblanc Legend Night and Dsquared² He Wood Silver Wind Wood have a close profile.
