What does Veteran smell like?

Cypress, Mediterranean lemon, bitter orange and Calabrian bergamot give a sharp, bright start. Toward the heart, lavender, geranium and galbanum add a green edge, while pepper and carnation bring a touch of spice. The base of vetiver, cedar, patchouli and sandalwood is dry and woody, softened a little by Bourbon vanilla and amber.

Longevity is rated strong, while sillage stays moderate. Votes spread evenly across all four seasons, with spring just ahead. Daily wear, leisure and business settings are favoured equally. Knize Forest and Chanel Platinum Égoïste have a close profile.
