Professional

Pecksniff's

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Pecksniff's Professional is a fougère for men that opens fresh with lavender, bergamot and marine notes, then moves through black pepper and leather into amber, patchouli and sandalwood. Lavender and bergamot lead the opening, with the marine notes adding a green, citrusy freshness. In the heart, black pepper and leather bring a spicy, leathery edge. The base of amber, patchouli and sandalwood sets the scent on a woody, earthy footing. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn and spring, with summer next. It suits daily wear and the office best, and leisure time too. Azzaro pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Jaguar for Men (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.

Pecksniff's Chypre Green is a green, citrusy chypre built around lemon, bergamot and galbanum; it is a women's fragrance and has been discontinued. Voters place it mostly in leisure and daily wear, then at the office. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage moderate, so it stays on the skin through the day without filling the room.
