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

It opens with bergamot, citron and coriander, while nutmeg and galbanum add a spicy, slightly green edge to that fresh start. In the heart, lavender, mint and artemisia keep the coolness going. Musk, cedar and amber settle it onto a woody base.

Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin and reads as a quiet scent. Most voters pick spring, followed by summer and fall, with winter the least chosen. Daily wear and business lead the occasions. Most see it as masculine and modern. Lacoste Booster and Ed Hardy for Men have a close profile.
