What does Tabac Gentle Men's Care smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, so it neither dominates nor fades quickly. Most voters pick fall and spring, then summer, with winter well behind. It leans towards daily, leisure and business wear, and rarely evenings. Voters call it masculine and modern.

It opens with orange, pear and ozonic notes, fresh and slightly sweet. In the heart, lavender, cardamom and violet leaf add a floral, spicy touch. The base of ambergris, sandalwood and cashmeran settles it onto a woody footing, with a faintly synthetic edge among the accords. David Beckham The Essence (Eau de Toilette) and La Rive Saffira have a close profile.
