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.

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

L for Men opens with a sharp, invigorating burst of grapefruit and petitgrain, quickly melding into a complex woody heart. Fir resin, vetiver, and cedar provide an earthy, green depth, while a subtle musk underpins the entire composition, creating a refined, masculine aroma that evolves beautifully on the skin.
