What does Activist (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the vote counts are small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. Voters spread the seasons almost evenly, so it isn't tied to one time of year. It is classed as a masculine fragrance.
It opens on citrus notes. In the heart, mint and coriander bring coolness together with spice. Sandalwood in the base settles everything onto a soft, woody footing, while the oriental touch stays in the background. Wolfgang Joop Wolfgang Joop and Duke Cannon Midway have a close profile.
