SpicyWhat does Marc Jacobs Men smell like?
It opens with ginger, cardamom and bergamot for a spicy lift, while cypress and cumin add a dry, green edge. In the heart, cyclamen, rose and fig leaf bring a floral, watery softness. The base sweetens with tonka bean and settles on a woody ground of cedarwood and patchouli.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, with autumn close behind. It is mostly worn for leisure, daily use and the office, and most voters find it masculine. Its lightly sweet character makes it a daytime scent.
