What does Signature Man (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Bergamot, cardamom and artemisia give the opening a cool, fresh feel. In the heart, cinnamon, lavender and orange blossom balance the spice with a soft floral touch. Cedar, tonka bean and musk settle the dry-down into a sweet, powdery woodiness.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend autumn and spring, and daily wear, leisure and work are the most chosen settings. Most see it as masculine, with a share calling it modern. La Rive Man in Style and Miro Cabal pour Homme have a close profile.
