Havana

Geo. F. Trumper · 2019

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Geo. F. Trumper Havana is a fresh, spicy fragrance for men that sets the brightness of grapefruit and pink pepper against the warm, smoky tones of cinnamon and vetiver. It reads as a single flow rather than stages: the citrus and green side lays a fresh ground, while cinnamon and pink pepper add spice on top. Bell pepper brings a slightly green edge, white gingerlily a soft floral touch, and vetiver leaves a woody, smoky trail. Longevity and sillage are rated good. Voters lean towards leisure, evening and nights out, with daily and office wear close behind. Though classed as masculine, voters split almost evenly between masculine and feminine character. Marni Marni and Reyane Tradition Insurrection II Dark share a close profile.
