What does Beau de Jour (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring, followed by autumn and summer, while winter trails behind. It leans towards daily wear and the office, with evening and night out chosen less. Half of the voters call it masculine, and many also find it classic.

The top is lavender and Provençal lavender. In the heart, basil, geranium, Cape snow bush and oakmoss give it a fresh, green, earthy feel. In the base, amber and patchouli sweeten it and settle it on a woody footing.
