What does Midsummer Man (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with basil, mandarin orange, Sicilian lemon, violet and cardamom, where citrus brightness is softened by spice. In the heart, red bell pepper, pelargonium, lavender and rum give it a greenish, lightly sweet turn. The base of vetiver, amber, sandalwood, cedar, vanilla and oakmoss settles into a woody, powdery, sweet finish.
