Introduced in 2008, this fragrance was created to be a classic men’s fragrance, and designed to be attractive to women as well as men. The cologne opens with notes of crisp bergamot, peppery basil and warm coriander. These scents give way to the middle notes of cardamom, ginger, and neroli, giving a warm and lightly floral heart. The fragrance closes with scents of cedar, ambergris and tobacco, striking a distinctly masculine note.

The company’s offerings have expanded from women’s clothing to include men’s clothing, shoes and accessories, and fragrances. Its first fragrance was released in 1992.
