What does Bon Monsieur smell like?

Voters pick spring most often, followed by fall and summer, with winter chosen less. Leisure, daytime and business settings lead. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters see it as masculine and classic.

As a whole the scent reads fresh and green. Bergamot and lavender absolute bring brightness, while geranium and lily of the valley add a light floral touch. Oakmoss, cedar and patchouli give it an earthy, woody backbone, softened by musk. Cacharel pour L'Homme and Chevignon have a close profile.
