What does Mauboussin pour Lui smell like?

The top opens crisp with ozone, cedar needle and lavender. Tarragon, star anise and caraway in the heart add a spicy, slightly herbal edge. The base of amber, oakmoss and ebony settles it onto a woody, earthy footing, while the accords also carry fruity and sweet touches, a powdery side and a fougère line.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it is mostly noticed up close. The vote count is small, so these ratings are tentative. It is made for men. Azzaro Pure Lavender and Tom Ford Beau de Jour (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
