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

Roberto Cavalli Man opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot and lemon, sharpened by a lively ginger kick that instantly uplifts. As it settles, a smooth, aromatic lavender emerges, subtly intertwined with an understated leather and dry cedar, preventing it from veering too green. The base grounds the composition in a clean, soft musk and creamy sandalwood, leaving a sophisticated yet approachable trail.
