What does True Religion for Men (2009) smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. Voters call it masculine and modern.

Citrus fruits and herbs give it a fresh, green frame, and the aquatic and fruity accords carry that freshness along. Patchouli and moss add a woody, lightly spicy base. Fougère and sweet accords make a clean, somewhat synthetic blend. La Martina Quimera Hombre (Eau de Toilette) and Jaguar Jaguar for Men Ultimate Power share a close profile.
