What does Potion for Man smell like?

It opens with lemon, bergamot, orange and mandarin orange, giving a fresh, sharp citrus start. In the heart, lavender, cardamom, geranium and tarragon add floral and spicy touches. The base of cedarwood, tobacco and sandalwood settles into a woody, slightly smoky and powdery drydown, with musk softening the edges. Sweet and oriental shades stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few people have voted, so that picture is tentative. It is positioned as a men's fragrance. Malizia Uomo Gold and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle have a close profile.
