What does Culture by Tabac (1996) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters are split between spring, fall and summer, with winter slightly behind, and it is mostly worn for leisure, daily use and business. It reads as a relaxed, everyday masculine scent. Iceberg Iceberg Homme and Lacoste Essential have a close profile.

The opening is citrusy and green, with melon adding a soft fruity edge. In the heart, geranium, rose, spices and leather set floral and spicy tones against each other. The base of patchouli, pine, oakmoss and ambergris leaves a dry, woody finish.
