What does The Man of Luxury smell like?

Its strength and longevity are rated as moderate, and so is its sillage, though the small number of votes means these readings are tentative. It reads as masculine, with an overall rating of 7.1.

The top opens with apple, grapefruit and ginger, a fruity and bright start. The heart brings mineral notes, lavender and black pepper, adding spice and a clean edge. The base settles into vetiver, ambroxan and woody notes, leaving a powdery, slightly creamy warmth. The Dua Brand Unleash the Leopard / Enter the Tiger and La Rive Rock have a close profile.
