What does Difference Men (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it suits anyone after a light scent that stays close to the skin. It is classed as a men's fragrance. With no season or occasion votes, it is hard to say when it fits best, and it is best expected to fade quickly after the first spray.

The top pairs the fruity freshness of apple with the spicy warmth of cinnamon and ginger. In the heart, violet leaf, lavender and basil bring a green, floral, slightly powdery feel. Woods form a dry base, while aquatic and sweet touches soften the whole. Joop! Joop! Thrill Man and Esprit Esprit Man (2013) have a close profile.
