Tu Te Calmes

Maison Matine · 2023

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Maison Matine Tu Te Calmes is a fresh unisex scent that opens on lemon zest and neroli and settles into a green, woody line, easy to wear on warm days and through the daytime. It has moderate longevity and moderate sillage. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. It doesn't lean firmly masculine or feminine, as votes split closely between the two. The top is Italian lemon zest, Guatemala cardamom and neroli. In the heart, fig leaf and petitgrain turn the citrus green. The base of Haitian vetiver, musk and Virginia cedar dries down woody and clean. Its profile is close to Bvlgari Bvlgari Man Wood Neroli and Byredo Super Cedar.

Arashi No Umi

Maison Matine · 2023

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Maison Matine Arashi No Umi is a unisex scent that opens with freesia, green apple and peach, then moves into a floral heart of jasmine and damask rose. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it neither disappears on the skin nor fills a room. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Though it is unisex, most voters read it as feminine. At the start, freesia and peach bring a sweet, fresh fruitiness, with green apple sharpening it slightly. In the heart, ylang-ylang, jasmine and damask rose add a rounded floral body. The base of musk and Virginia cedar settles it onto a creamy, softly woody ground.

We Are Tribe Intense

7.0

Benetton · 2023

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Benetton We Are Tribe Intense is a spicy, woody men's fragrance built around mint, cinnamon and leather. Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, so it suits those who want a balanced scent that stays close rather than filling the room. It reads masculine. There are too few votes on seasons and occasions to say more about when it suits best. Fresh, spicy and woody accords lead. Mint and lavender bring coolness, while cinnamon and liquorice sweeten the mix. Leather, gaiac wood and vetiver add a smoky, earthy depth, and iris lends a powdery softness. Elemi resin and carrot seed round it out with resinous and floral touches.

Smoke

7.3

Jil Sander · 2025

Fresh · Green · Sweet

Jil Sander Smoke is a smoky, woody unisex fragrance built around Spanish cade juniper, aldehydes and cedarwood. The notes read as a single whole rather than a top, heart and base. Cade juniper and cedarwood form a dry, smoky backbone; aldehydes add a fresh, slightly synthetic brightness, and elemi resin brings a resinous warmth. Green, spicy and powdery tones stay in the background, with a leathery shadow and a touch of sweetness rounding it out. Longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine.
