What does Nordic Waters for Him smell like?
Mandarin orange and lemon keep the citrus bright at the start, while cardamom adds a light touch of spice. In the heart, violet leaf, Cascalone® and coriander seed build a green, floral middle. The base of moss, cedarwood and musk settles the scent onto a soft, woody ground.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without crowding the room. Voters pick it most for leisure and daily wear, with sport and business use not far behind. It is also rated highly for value. Dsquared² He Wood Cologne and Lattafa Suqraat have a close profile.
