What does Serendipity for Men smell like?

Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Half of the voters read it as masculine.

Cardamom's spice and almond's sweetness form a creamy base. The chypre accord and oakmoss pull that sweetness towards earthy, woody and slightly smoky ground, with a resinous, oriental warmth in the background. Tom Ford Oud Wood (Eau de Parfum) and Bond No. 9 New York Sandalwood have a close profile.
