What does Amans smell like?

It opens with bergamot, pink grapefruit and lemon in a bright citrus layer, with cardamom adding a light spice. The heart of geranium, nutmeg, rosemary and ozonic notes turns green and airy. Rosewood, tonka bean, musk and patchouli settle it onto a soft, woody base.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while autumn and winter trail far behind. Around half of voters read it as masculine, though a fair number find it feminine. Paul Smith Extreme Men and Dunhill Amalfi Citrus have a close profile.
