What does Metropolitan Man (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Pepper, grapefruit and bergamot give the top a bright, slightly sharp start. In the heart, gaiac wood, cardamom and geranium add a dry, spiced turn. At the base, vetiver and cedarwood carry the woody frame while chocolate sweetens the scent and brings a gourmand, creamy softness.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though few people have voted, so these ratings are only a rough guide. With its fresh citrus side and sweet base, it sits comfortably between daytime and evening wear.
