What does Maxim's pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with lavender, carnation and bergamot. In the heart, cedarwood, amber, jasmine and sandalwood add a resinous, earthy warmth. The base of musk, leather and oakmoss leaves a dry, leathery trail.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with night out and evening the favoured occasions. It reads masculine and classic. Dior Jules and Charles Jourdan Un Homme have a close profile.
