Champ d'Influence

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters place it in spring and summer, though autumn and winter have their share. Daily wear, leisure and office settings lead, while evening use sits further back.

Aldehydes and lemon give a clean, citrusy brightness at the start, with lavender tying it to the fougère family. Geranium in the heart adds a green, lightly spicy turn. The base of oakmoss, vetiver and musk settles into a dry, woody footing, and a synthetic, scrubbed-clean edge runs throughout. Coty Aspen for Men and L'Artisan Parfumeur L'Eau du Caporal have a close profile.
