Annayake Undo pour Homme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005. Undo pour Homme opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Lavender, Nutmeg, Coriander, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Oakmoss, and Tobacco. Annayake's Undo pour Homme carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A smooth, fresh 90s throwback that’s surprisingly unique despite the Cool Water comparisons. It’s got that clean, barbershop vibe but with an intriguing spicy-herbal twist that keeps it modern and quietly confident.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Undo opens with a bright, zesty citrus burst of bergamot, lemon, and mandarin, quickly mellowing into a serene heart of aromatic lavender and green tea, spiced up by nutmeg and coriander. As it dries, it settles into a warm, earthy base of tobacco and oakmoss, underpinned by a clean musk and cedar, with a subtle touch of labdanum. It's an evolving scent that maintains a smooth, fresh character throughout.
