WoodyWhat does Sun Bath Men smell like?
Grapefruit, marine notes and juniper berry open cool and salty. In the heart, orange blossom, green apple and ambergris add a soft, slightly fruity touch. As it dries down, benzoin brings some sweetness over a woody base of cypress and woods.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer or spring, and it is used mostly for leisure, daily wear and the office. It reads masculine and modern. Jil Sander Sun Day Men and Rabanne Invictus Aqua (2018) have a close profile.
