Pure Man

Pure Man from Bruno Banani is a woody, citrus fragrance released in 2006 for men. Wood and citrus lead equally, with a spicy layer and lighter musky, floral and ambery touches.

The opening combines mandarin orange, bergamot and grapefruit for a bright, juicy freshness, with anise adding a sweet, liquorice-like note and cardamom a cool, aromatic spice. In the heart, cedar brings dry woodiness, while jasmine and cyclamen lend a soft, clean floral glow. The base settles into vetiver's earthy, slightly smoky dryness, sandalwood's creamy warmth, a gentle resinous sweetness from benzoin and amber, and musk for a smooth, skin-like finish.

This is a versatile, easy-going scent for daytime: the office, weekends, spring and summer days or any setting where a clean, fresh impression is wanted. The woody, ambery base gives it enough depth for mild evenings as well. It suits those who like classic citrus-woody fragrances with a touch of spice.
