From your scent profile
Richard James Savile Row is a men's fragrance that pairs the fresh opening of green tea, ginger and bergamot with the woody calm of lavender and vetiver; it has been discontinued.
Skunky's take: That just-out-of-the-shower feeling, clean and fresh.
How does it perform?

Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Richard James Savile Row smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, and it leans towards business, daily and leisure wear. Half of those who voted call it masculine, and a quarter find it classic.
The top opens fresh and citrusy with green tea, ginger, bergamot and mandarin orange. In the heart, lavender and rose add a floral touch while cardamom and coriander bring spice. The base settles into a woody, powdery, slightly leathery ground of vetiver, sandalwood, amber and suede. Ferré for Men and Ralph Lauren Romance for Men have a close profile.
