Davidoff
Hot Water
2009Basil and wormwood open sharp and herbal — the basil green and slightly anisic, the wormwood bitter and medicinal.

Sweetie Aoud
2015Roja Dove's Sweetie Aoud wastes no time: bergamot's citrus brightness opens and departs, leaving May Rose standing alone in the heart — a compositional choice that signals confidence in both the rose and what follows.
OudRoseBalsamicSmoky4.1 / 5· 463Widian / AJ Arabia
Liwa Widian / AJ Arabia 2017 Extrait de Parfum
2017Saffron and bergamot open with the dry, leathery warmth typical of high-end Middle Eastern compositions, jasmine adding a brief floral lift before the spices take over.
OudWoodyLeatherAmber4.2 / 5· 435O Boticário
Styletto
1985Styletto opens with the crisp authority of a classic fougère — citrus (lemon, mandarin, bergamot) and lavender meeting cleanly, the rosemary adding a green edge that anchors the brightness without dampening it.
LavenderMossyCitrusHerbal3.6 / 5· 416Fragrance One
Date for Men
2019Opens bright and snappy — lemon and bergamot lifted by green cardamom, the spice already pushing through the citrus rather than waiting its turn.
WoodyWarm SpicyAmberSweet3.1 / 5· 415Moschino
Uomo? Moschino 1997 Eau de Toilette
1997With most of the composition concentrated in the heart and base, this reads as an aromatic woody driven by a few bold materials.
WoodyAromaticLavenderFresh Spicy3.9 / 5· 371Rogue
Mousse Illuminée
2018White flowers float above a dense moss carpet, their soap-lifted petals filtering sunlight through cedar slats.
MossyWhite FloralWoodySoft Spicy4.2 / 5· 366Roja Parfums
Elysium Eau Intense
2023Elysium Eau Intense opens with a sharp aromatic chord — lavender and thyme over a bright spray of citrus — before the grapefruit fades and a lush floral heart surfaces: tuberose, May rose, orange blossom, lily of the valley.
FreshCitrusSoft SpicyWoody3.8 / 5· 353Histoires De Parfums
Histoires de Parfums
The opening throws a citrus-herbal-spicy avalanche — black pepper and ylang-ylang against lime, orange, lemon, eucalyptus, grapefruit, galbanum, ivy, lychee, and bergamot.
WoodyWarm SpicyAmberFloral3.8 / 5· 316Paco Rabanne
Black XS Potion for Him
2014Black XS Potion for Him opens with juniper — gin-dry, slightly resinous — then drifts into a heart of cashmere wood and wormwood that reads more bitter-aromatic than sweet.
BalsamicAromaticSweetFresh Spicy4.3 / 5· 305Oriflame
Excite
2009Bergamot and melon open cleanly before wormwood and quince shift the direction: the wormwood brings a herbal bitterness that reads genuinely unusual for a fresh masculine, and quince adds a dry fruit tartness distinct from the sweeter melon.
SaltyMarineMuskyCitrus4.1 / 5· 294Roja Parfums
Reckless pour Homme Roja Parfums 2014 Parfum
2014Reckless pour Homme opens in familiar Roja fougère territory: lavender and citrus, clean and confident, before May rose signals the bridge to the base.
Soft SpicyWoodyBalsamicSmoky4.2 / 5· 277Giorgio Armani
Sì Giorgio Armani 2014 Eau de Parfum Intense
2014Sì Intense deepens the original's chypre-oriental formula by loading more ambroxan into the base, giving the whole composition a radiant, skin-like quality that carries through hours of wear.

Bowling Green Geoffrey Beene 1987 Eau de Toilette
1987Basil and bergamot open with a sharp, clean snap — herbal and citrus edges that feel almost edible before lavender and cardamom push into the foreground.
AromaticLavenderMossyCitrus3.9 / 5· 159Dusita
Le Sillage Blanc
2017Galbanum and wormwood open with a sharp green bitterness that quickly settles into a leathery core.
LeatherGreenMossySoft Spicy3.8 / 5· 145Balmain
Jolie Madame Balmain 1953 Eau de Toilette
1953Gardenia opens creamy and waxy, its lactonic heft cradled by bitter neroli and bergamot’s metallic sparkle, creating a green-white flash that feels both polished and slightly feral.
LeatherMossyAnimalicWhite Floral4.0 / 5· 137J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin
Fougair
2021Pink pepper crackles first, a fizzy berry-spice pop that lifts the bergamot into something almost grapefruit-sharp.

Indian Summer
1991Petitgrain and lavender open dry and sun-bleached, the citrus oils adding a quick flash of zest before retreating.
