Masculin Ouragan is a citrus-spice scent that dries down to warm woods and vanilla. It is straightforward and easy to wear, with enough clove and patchouli to avoid being plain. A decent Eau de Toilette for a classic masculine style.

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.

About

Masculin Ouragan opens with a bright citrus trio of mandarin, orange and bergamot. The heart brings in clove, geranium and patchouli, which add a spicy, slightly green and earthy turn. The base is sandalwood, vanilla and Virginia cedarwood, so the finish is woody and softly sweet. It is a classic citrus, spice and wood build, warm in the drydown and easy to follow from start to finish, with no unusual twists.
