Geoffrey Beene de Grey Flannel is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1997. de Grey Flannel opens with Caraway, Lemon, Mandarin, and Cedar, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Lavender, Clary Sage, and Eucalyptus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Geoffrey Beene's de Grey Flannel carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This budget-friendly aquatic woody fragrance is a fresh, clean scent that punches well above its weight, with many proclaiming it a dead ringer for Chanel's Platinum Egoiste. Don't expect huge performance, but for the price, it's a solid, inoffensive daily reach.
