What does Land (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with mandarin orange, grapefruit and Sicilian lemon in a bright citrus layer, with lavender and galbanum adding a green edge. In the heart, juniper berry, bourbon vetiver and oakmoss absolute form a spicy, earthy core, and the base of benzoin, amber and musky notes leaves a soft warmth.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall not far behind, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Just over half of voters call it masculine, and many also describe it as classic.
