Scent Profile

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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh and clean profile makes it ideal for office and casual wear, providing an aura of professionalism and tidiness. Given the community consensus on its moderate performance and subtle projection, it's not a scent for making a bold statement, so it's less suited for dates or formal events where more impact is desired.

About

Natura Homem opens with a zesty, spicy kick of bergamot, ginger, and nutmeg, offering an invigorating start. This quickly mellows into a surprisingly fruity heart of crisp apple, juicy pear, and sweet peach, adding a touch of verdant freshness. The dry down is a comforting blend of earthy cedar, smooth sandalwood, and clean musk, creating a woody, slightly powdery finish that's both familiar and reassuring.
