Sean John I Am King Eau de Toilette is a fresh, citrusy men's scent that joins a bright opening of tangerine, orange and lemon to seawater at the heart and a woody base of vetiver and cedar.

What does I Am King (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it suits anyone who wants a light trace that stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer. It leans towards daily wear and leisure time, and it also works at the office.

The top pairs tangerine, orange, cranberry and lemon for a fruity, lightly sweet freshness. At the heart, seawater adds an aquatic coolness and currant leaf a green note. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, cedar, labdanum and oakmoss settles it onto a dry, woody footing.
