What does Rouge (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, with summer chosen less. Leisure, a night out and evenings are the occasions that come up most. Longevity and sillage are rated good, and voters mostly see its character as masculine and classic.

The top is bergamot and citrus notes. Towards the heart come lavender, mint and herbaceous and fougère notes, giving it a green, earthy feel. In the base, sandalwood, patchouli and pine form a woody footing while oriental notes sweeten it. Le Bonheur Perfumes VI and Costume National Homme Parfum have a close profile.
