What does Phantom Parfum smell like?

The top is rhubarb, cardamom, bergamot and lemon, a lively, fruity and spicy start. In the heart, cedarwood, patchouli and lavender set the scent on a woody footing. The base turns creamy and sweet through vanilla and tolu balm, with vetiver adding a dry woody edge.

Longevity and projection are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind, and it is chosen most for nights out and evenings. It reads masculine and modern. For a close profile, Montblanc Legend Night and Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit de L'Homme Eau Électrique are worth a look.
