What does Match Point (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Basil and pink pepper give a spicy, green freshness at the start. Gentian absolute and clary sage form the heart, while cashmeran and vetiver lay a woody base. Citrus and sweet accents soften the freshness, and a synthetic edge runs through it.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and winter is rarely chosen. It leans towards leisure, sport, work and daily wear, and reads masculine and modern. Giardini di Toscana Rosso Radice and Carthusia Intenso di Basilico have a close profile.
