What does Lavender for Men smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters pick it most for leisure, daily wear and the office, with evening and sport further behind. It reads clearly masculine.

As a whole, Provençal lavender leads with a cool lift from mint and Chinese eucalyptus. Italian bergamot and Moroccan rosemary keep it green, while mugwort adds a faint bitterness. Java vetiver and Indonesian patchouli give it a woody, earthy base, softened by Brazilian tonka bean and Siam benzoin into something sweet, resinous and creamy.
