Argos Pour Homme EDP
Description
Argos Pour Homme is a crisp gin-and-citrus opening on a clean, woody, gently floral base. Christian Petrovich created it for Argos in 2017 with a masculine wearer in mind. British gin, orange, lemon, lime and Scottish Highland pine give it a bright, juniper-tinged start. The heart is lavender, African violet, wild jasmine and vetiver, aromatic and refined. The base is Mysore sandalwood, Canadian cedar, sage, amber, neroli, white musk and a touch of patchouli. It reads clean and polished, a smart everyday scent.

Translation: woody, floral and fresh in near equal parts. Gin, citrus and pine bring the freshness, lavender and violet the floral line, and sandalwood and cedar the backbone. The small warm share comes from amber and patchouli, not from oud.
