FougèreWhat does Mr Taylor - A Gentlemans Cologne smell like?
Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, and few choose winter. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. It is classed as a men's fragrance.
It opens with bergamot, lavender and green notes alongside fougère notes for a crisp start. Fern and geranium sit in the heart. Musk, amber, moss and leather in the base settle it onto a woody, lightly spicy footing.
