What does Eton College Collection (Gentleman's Cologne) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays noticeable through the day without filling a room. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily, leisure and business wear come up most often. It is mostly seen as masculine and classic.

Mandarin orange, lemon, orange and other citrus notes lead, in a fresh, aquatic and green mood. Floral notes in the heart soften the brightness, and patchouli lays a woody, lightly spicy base. The fougère structure gives it a neat, clean gentleman's-cologne feel. The Body Shop Bergamot and Heeley Note de Yuzu have a close profile.
