Ok first off this is a very Masculine scent, not over bearing or smells like some sort of flowers. It smells like something a man would wear. Very elegant and sophisticated but refined . But to let you know how or what you really smell. I smell sandalwood with a light rose under tone with different spices. The way is to stop at the store and try it out. It smells great I think anyone who gives it a shot just might love it. Hope this helps
