What does Pour Monsieur (Eau de Cologne) smell like?

The opening is led by lavender, basil and lemon, a fresh citrus and green start. In the heart, patchouli, sandalwood, iris and leather build a woody, powdery core. The base turns sweeter with benzoin, vanilla and tonka bean, while amber and moss add a resinous, leathery warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the small number of votes makes this a rough guide. The profile suits those who like classic men's colognes, and its value for money is rated highly. It has been discontinued. Geo. F. Trumper Sandalwood Cologne and Truefitt & Hill Clubman (Cologne) have a close profile.
