What does La Fenice pour Homme smell like?

The top holds frankincense, violet leaf, mandarin orange and apple blossom, giving a fruity, green freshness. In the heart, clove, black pepper and white lily bring spice and flowers together. Cedarwood, leather and amber sit at the base, and the scent settles into a woody, leathery structure.

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters lean towards spring, fall and summer, with winter further behind. Leisure, night out and daily wear come first, and business wear is close behind. Most voters read it as masculine and classic. Masque I-III Russian Tea and Stora Skuggan Silphium have a close profile.
