What does Captain Molyneux (1994) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Voters place it equally in daytime, leisure and business settings, with evening chosen less often. It reads clearly masculine.

It opens fresh and green with bay leaf, aldehydes and citrus. The heart adds a spicy edge through cinnamon, carnation and geranium, while clary sage and spruce deepen the woody side. The base of cedarwood, moss and tonka bean settles dry, earthy and slightly leathery. Dunhill Edition and Azzaro pour Homme share a close profile.
