157 ratings
From your scent profile
Roger & Gallet Open Eau de Toilette is a men's fougère that sets a fresh opening of bergamot, Amalfi lemon and lavender against a smoky, earthy base of tobacco, patchouli and vetiver; it has been discontinued.
Skunky's take: That just-out-of-the-shower feeling, clean and fresh.

SmokyWhat does Open (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, then spring and winter, and it suits leisure, work and daily wear. Most see it as masculine and classic.
Citrus and lavender give a fresh, green start. Thyme and sage add a spicy, herbal heart, and the base settles into a woody, resinous, slightly leathery fougère character.
