Paradise for Men Alfred Sung 2003 Eau de Toilette

By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit and cardamom open with a sharp, bright citrus-spice that feels energizing and clean on first contact. Rosemary adds an aromatic, slightly medicinal green edge that tempers the fruit's sweetness immediately. This brisk top accord settles within minutes, making way for a base where sandalwood provides a soft, creamy woodiness. Patchouli contributes an earthy, slightly dry texture that grounds the composition, while musk adds a clean, skin-like warmth. The dry-down is a balanced blend of woody earthiness and subtle musk, remaining close to the skin with minimal evolution. Projection starts moderately but recedes to an intimate radius within two hours, lasting about four to six hours total. Best for casual daytime wear in spring or fall, especially in cool, dry weather.
