What does Antidote (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with cardamom, bergamot, grapefruit, mandarin orange and mint, bright and lightly spiced. At the heart, nutmeg, lavender, orange blossom and violet add a floral, powdery layer. Tonka bean, amber, sandalwood and leather then settle it into a sweet, woody softness.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and the occasion votes spread from daily wear to evenings out. Most voters read it as masculine.
