What does Trafalgar (Cologne) smell like?

It opens with orange, lemon grass and bergamot, giving a bright, fruity start. Lavender, clove and nutmeg add a warm, spicy heart. It dries down onto cedarwood, musk and amber, a woody base.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. It reads masculine and classic.
