And complete the picture notes of cedar and vetiver, which remain on the skin from 4 to 12 hours, depending on body temperature and weather conditions.

A positive, tasty aroma that recalls the spring fragrance of nature. This eau de toilette is unlikely to suit a brutal man, since it is too light, sparkling with freshness and sun.
But for an energetic, easy-going person CLINIQUE Happy for Men is what is required for every day.
Perfume settles on the skin with cedar and heady musk, but the overall aromatic composition is light and unobtrusive, with hints of citrus and fresh herbs.

- Base notes: vanilla, thyme, sandalwood
A wonderful gift for a lover of citrus perfume. At first, the smell of Shaman Legend seems harsh, but after a few minutes it opens on the skin, becoming refreshing and spicy. For a young man, Shaman Legend is not the best choice because of its richness, but for an adult, a respectable man, it will do just fine.
Alas, a low price entails a low resistance. We recommend that you carry this toilet water with you and renew it a couple of times during the working day.

This is not the cheapest men's fragrance for spring 2020. But the disadvantage of its price is more than paid for by its exceptional stamina and sweetish aroma of romance and elegance, which will conquer both a young man and an adult gentleman.
He conquers women's hearts with his sweet combination of neroli and jasmine, and his sweetness dilutes the tangerine-lemon duo and sensual, but not too "stuffy" musk. The whole pyramid creates a feeling of purity, florality and sweetness.
