What does Heartbreaker smell like?

The top notes are cardamom, grapefruit, cinnamon, nutmeg and lemon, so spice and citrus sit side by side. In the heart, lavender and orange soften that opening, while liquorice, patchouli, amber and cedarwood in the base give it a woody, slightly smoky footing. The aquatic and green sides keep the spice from turning heavy.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though few people have rated it, so treat those figures as tentative. It is classed as a men's fragrance. French Avenue Enigma Une and Emir Men have a close profile.
