What does America for Men (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and lasts as a light presence through the day. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It is made as a men's fragrance.

The top notes are bergamot, sage, pineapple, aniseed and fern, giving a fresh, fruity first impression. In the heart, vetiver, juniper, basil and lavender form a green, aromatic backbone. The base of amber, musk, leather and cedar settles it into a woody, leathery warmth. Versace Blue Jeans and Mexx Mexx Man have a close profile.
