What does Le Barbier de Tanger smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind, while few choose winter. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most common settings. It reads masculine, and many voters also call it classic.

The top notes of bergamot, lemon, mandarin orange, basil and cardamom open bright and crisp. In the heart, galbanum, petitgrain and maillette lavender add a green, aromatic edge. The base of vetiver, patchouli, amber and oakmoss settles it into a dry, woody finish.
