About

Illusione for Him opens with a bright, crisp blend of bitter orange and zesty lemon, instantly awakening the senses. It quickly settles into a sophisticated heart of clean fir resin and cedar that evokes a walk through a cool, green forest. The base introduces a grounded vetiver with a subtle hint of creamy tonka bean, adding a touch of smooth warmth without ever becoming overtly sweet. It's an airy, woody citrus perfect for warmer weather.
