What does Amyris Homme (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Sicilian mandarin orange and Moroccan rosemary carry the freshness, while saffron adds a touch of spice. Iris pallida root brings a soft, powdery floral note; Caribbean amyris and Virginia cedar form the woody frame, and Brazilian tonka bean absolute pulls the scent towards something creamy and sweet.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without crowding the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. Most see it as masculine, though many also call it modern. Close in profile are Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Vitae and Scentiments Amyris.
