EarthyWhat does Oleg Cassini for Men (1979) smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. It is made for men, and its leathery, smoky character suits those who like a more mature, classic fougère.
It opens with fruity, green and citrus notes. The heart holds rose, jasmine, geranium, vetiver, patchouli, honey and hay. In the base, frankincense, musk, castoreum, cistus, vanilla and amber settle it onto a resinous, earthy, warm foundation. Its profile is close to Veejaga Hascish Men and Salvador Dali Dali pour Homme.
