Portrayal Man

MasculineBy Pierre NegrinRated 4.0/5 · 1,593 reviews

violet leaves

Portrayal Man opens on violet leaves, green and almost cool, before vetiver gives the heart a dry, earthy warmth. The cade oil base leaves a woody, smoky trace. Aromatic, woody and ozonic accords: wear it in spring, when the air is still warming.
