What does Black Pepper (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Lime, mandarin orange and lemon give the opening a bright citrus character. In the heart, marine notes, Provençal lavender and black pepper lead, and the aquatic air softens the pepper's edge. The base of musk, amber, cedar and cashmere wood sets down a woody, gently warm floor.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays noticeable without pushing itself on a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind and winter well back. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the usual settings, and most voters call it masculine. Giorgio Armani Acqua di Giò pour Homme and Zara Absolutely Dark have a close profile.
