The top notes of tagetes, lemon and green apple give a fresh, fruity start. In the heart, sage, cinnamon and cardamom bring spice, and the scent turns sweeter as it softens. The base of patchouli, cedarwood and amber settles into a woody, slightly smoky ground, with a synthetic edge among the accords. Kelsey Berwin Zeus pour Homme and Nike Nike Man Green have a close profile.
