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

Both its longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it suits anyone who wants a light scent that stays close to the skin. Most voters pick autumn and spring, with winter third and summer last. Its character reads mostly masculine, with modern and classic following.

The top notes of sage, mandarin orange and basil open fresh and citrusy. In the heart, clover blossom, rose and nutmeg add a floral, spicy softness. The base of moss, vetiver, gaiac wood and patchouli settles into a woody, green footing, with sweet and synthetic touches alongside.
