What does Subtil pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated weak, with voters describing a scent that stays close to the skin. The number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It has been discontinued.

The top notes of ginger, cardamom and mandarin give a fresh, citrusy and spicy start, while lotus adds an aquatic touch. In the heart, coriander, violet and rose bring a gentle floral softness. Patchouli, amber and musk settle underneath as an earthy, woody, lightly sweet base, with a synthetic edge running through the accords.
