What does Paco Rabanne pour Homme Eau (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than leaving a heavy trail. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily wear, office and leisure lead the occasions. It is mostly called masculine and modern. It has been discontinued.

Citrus and green accords lead, with the brightness of bergamot softened by a faintly fruity orange blossom. Pepper and basil add a spicy edge in the heart, while vetiver gives a dry, green footing. The base of cedarwood, sandalwood, leather and frankincense finishes calm and woody. Mark Birley for Men and Sospiro Viola have a close profile.
