Chic For Men, released by Carolina Herrera in 2003 and composed by Carlos Benaïm, Jean-Marc Chaillan and Rosendo Mateu, is equally spicy and citrus, with a woody layer and lighter sweet, musky and fresh touches.

Watermelon, bergamot, mandarin and lemon open with a juicy, cool and watery-fresh sparkle, while cardamom adds an aromatic spice. The heart turns warmer, with cinnamon bringing a sweet spice and pepper a dry crackle. The base is smooth and soft: tonka bean gives an almond-like sweetness, sandalwood a creamy woodiness, cedar a dry structure, and amber and musk a gentle warmth.

Most wearers find it moderate or long lasting, with a mostly moderate trail. It is voted for spring and autumn and slightly more for day than night, which makes it a versatile choice for the office and casual evenings. It should appeal to men who like fresh, fruity citrus with warm spice and a soft woody finish.
