V/S Homme for men

Mostly cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers. Underneath that, sharp and peppery, more like cracked pepper than baking spice.

It opens on lavender, lime and coriander, moves through nutmeg, rose and cyclamen, and settles on cashmere wood, cedar and amber.

• lavender: clean herbal flower, cooling and slightly soapy
• lime: sharp green citrus, more bitter and less sweet than lemon

It lasts well 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.
