Vera Wang Vera Wang for Men is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2004. Vera Wang for Men opens with Yuzu and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Anise, Leather, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Tobacco. Vera Wang's Vera Wang for Men carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Vera Wang for Men is a classic from 2004, a surprisingly sophisticated and versatile fragrance despite its frustratingly poor performance. It’s often compared to pricier rivals like D&G The One and Tom Ford for Men, offering a refined, mature scent profile that punches above its weight class in aroma, if not stamina.

Its sophisticated but light scent profile makes it ideal for office and casual wear, especially given its poor projection and longevity, which means it won't offend. It's too subdued for formal events where a more assertive fragrance is often preferred, and definitely not suited for sport.

About

It kicks off with a bright, zesty splash of yuzu and petitgrain, quickly mellowing into a warming heart of anise, rich leather, and nutmeg. The dry down is a cosy, masculine blend of creamy sandalwood and smooth tobacco, creating an inviting, subtly woody finish. It’s a clean and tailored scent that feels mature and well-blended.
