Voters place Hello evenly across daytime, leisure and business, with evening and night-out wear close behind and some sport use too. It is made for men.
The opening is grapefruit, mint and bergamot, with bitter orange alongside. Violet leaf and lavender form the heart. Patchouli, ambrox and vetiver settle it into a woody, lightly spicy base, leaving a sweet, synthetic trail.
