What does Drifter smell like?

Most voters wear it for leisure and daytime, and some choose it for the office. Its longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it suits anyone who wants a scent that stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. It reads masculine.

Grapefruit and pear give it a bright, fruity freshness, while cardamom, ginger and rosemary add a green, spicy edge. Juniper, vetiver, gaiac wood and sandalwood build a woody base, and amber sweetens it. A synthetic side also shows in the accords. Dolce & Gabbana The One Grey and Burberry Mr. Burberry (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
