What does Roberto Cavalli Uomo (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Saffron and black violet lead at the top, giving a spicy, floral start. In the heart, the sweetness of honey is softened by the fresher side of lavender, and the dry-down settles on a woody, powdery, gourmand base of cedar, patchouli and tonka bean. The overall feel is sweet and oriental, with a fresh streak running through it.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening, night out and leisure wear lead the occasions. Half call it masculine, and most of the rest find it modern. Lancôme Hypnôse Homme and Ted Lapidus TL Intenso have a close profile.
