What does Tactics (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Bergamot, lemon and galbanum open it bright and green, while juniper berry and peach add a light fruity touch. In the heart, pine, mint and thyme bring a spicy, resinous feel. Tonka bean, vanilla and amber in the base soften and sweeten the finish.
Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters lean towards spring, summer and fall, and mostly pick daily wear, leisure and the office. Most votes read it as masculine and classic. Halston Halston 1-12 and Geoffrey Beene Bowling Green have a close profile.
