Amber & Lavender

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so the scent stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Voters spread their picks almost evenly across the four seasons, with spring and fall slightly ahead. Leisure, daily wear and office are the most chosen settings. Most voters call it masculine, though a good share see it as feminine.

Petitgrain, basil and rosemary open it with a crisp, herbal freshness. In the heart, cinnamon and nutmeg add spice while lavender keeps it balanced. Vetiver, amber, musk and oakmoss form a soft, woody base. Chanel Platinum Égoïste and Paco Rabanne pour Homme have a close profile.
