True Star Men

True Star Men by Tommy Hilfiger balances sweetness, flowers and leather equally, with spicy, woody and citrus sides in support. It was released in 2005 as a masculine scent.

Pink grapefruit and lemon tree open it with a bright, zesty citrus freshness, while star anise adds a sweet, licorice-like spice and freesia a light floral touch. In the heart, licorice deepens the sweet, aniseed character, and orris root brings a cool, powdery softness. The base is warm and smooth, with leather giving a supple richness, saffron a golden spice, sandalwood a creamy woodiness and vanilla a soft sweetness.

Warm and slightly unusual, it suits autumn and winter, for evenings, dates and nights out. A man who likes sweet, licorice-tinged scents with a powdery, leathery base will find it a distinctive, approachable choice. It has the playful, slightly glamorous spirit of mid-2000s men's fragrances, with enough character to stand apart from typical fresh scents.
