What does Romeo Gigli for Man (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with bergamot, pink grapefruit and green notes, while blackcurrant and cinnamon add a touch of fruit and spice. In the heart, iris, water lily and nutmeg bring a soft, floral, powdery feel. The base settles on patchouli, vetiver and oakmoss, giving it a woody footing.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall, and it leans towards leisure, business and daytime wear. Most voters find it masculine. Bvlgari Bvlgari Man Extreme and Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme have a close profile.
