What does Luxure Masculin (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring and summer trailing behind. It leans towards daily and leisure wear, with some votes for business and evening.

The citrusy, spicy opening gives way to a heart of lavender, sandalwood and coffeewood that pulls the scent towards woody and lightly smoky. Patchouli and vetiver add depth, while vanilla brings out the sweet, gourmand side.
