Club

7.9

Strellson · 2024

Fresh · Floral · Green

Strellson Club opens on star anise, lavender and bergamot, with vetiver and rose in the heart, and reads as a woody, spicy fragrance for men. Its longevity and sillage both rate as good, each scoring above seven out of ten, though the number of votes is small, so this is a tentative picture. There are no season or occasion votes, so little can be said on that front, but it reads as a masculine fragrance. The top pairs star anise, caraway and lavender in a fresh, spicy opening softened by bergamot. In the heart, vetiver, rose, violet, frankincense and clove add a floral, green layer. The base of musk, patchouli, sandalwood and cedarwood settles into a woody, slightly sweet finish. Perfumes with a close profile include Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle (Eau de Toilette) and Amouage Ciel Man.
