What does Spicy for Him smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, spring follows, and summer gets only a small share. It leans towards evenings and nights out, yet it also works for leisure, daytime and the office. Most voters read it as masculine, with some calling it classic.

It opens with lavender, lemon and tarragon, which give a cool, herbal start. At the heart, patchouli and cinnamon add a spicy, sweet warmth. It dries down onto tree moss, musk and amber, a woody, resinous base. Birkholz Supreme Oud and Manos Gerakinis Anthem have a close profile.
