Le Male Summer 2012 for men

Mostly like crushed leaves and cut grass, sharp with a bitter edge. Underneath that, sweet and creamy, like vanilla pod or custard.

It opens on lavender, mint and cardamom, moves through grass and green notes, and settles on vanilla, musk and sandalwood.

• lavender: clean herbal flower, cooling and slightly soapy
• mint: cool and sharp, with a cleansing bite

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
