Dolce&Gabbana Pour Homme

A cleanly drawn aromatic fougère: citrus and neroli on top, lavender and sage at the centre, then a dry base where tonka bean wraps sandalwood and a thread of tobacco. Mainstream, and well cut.

Polo Black

An iced mango kept clear of syrup by sage and a thread of citrus, then a base of sandalwood, patchouli and tonka bean. The dark weight underneath is not what the bright opening predicts.
