Citrus upfront. Then the florals step in, iris, violet leaf, geranium, tempered by suede and driftwood. Warm, powdery. The opening is bright and clean.DKNY Love from New York for Men
Star anise is not a shy note. It opens this fragrance like a statement, and if black pepper follows, you know this is not playing it safe. Overall effect is warm and atmospheric.L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme EDT
