What does Joop! Homme Red King smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, with winter and spring following. It leans towards evening, leisure and night-out wear; half of voters call it masculine, and a good number find it modern.

It opens with cinnamon and red chili for a spicy warmth. At the heart, patchouli and orange blossom add a floral, fruity softness. Virginia cedar builds a woody base, while tonka bean leaves a sweet, gourmand trail. Synthetic and oriental touches colour the whole. Armaf Odyssey Spectra Rainbow and Davidoff The Brilliant Game have a close profile.
