What does Invasion of the Royal Barbers smell like?

Thyme, lavender and bergamot give it a crisp, aromatic front, while grapefruit and violet leaf add a green edge. Cardamom and ginger bring spice, and sandalwood, cedarwood and vetiver form the woody base. Vanilla, musk and ambergris soften the sharper lines.

Voters find both its longevity and its sillage strong. As a unisex scent it suits men and women alike. The Dua Brand Invasion of the Barbers and Parfums MDCI Invasion Barbare have a close profile.
