What does Réminiscence pour Homme smell like?

It opens green and fresh with artemisia, orange, lavender and lemon. Cardamom, coriander, geranium and clove add a spicy warmth in the heart. Vetiver, patchouli, musk, cedarwood and benzoin settle into a woody, earthy base with a slightly sweet, powdery edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters lean towards fall and spring, and mostly wear it for daily use and leisure, with business and evening following close behind. Most voters read it as masculine. Its profile is close to L'Erbolario Assenzio and Bois 1920 Vetiver Ambrato.
