Pleasant All-Rounder
Recently, I won a small lot of fragrances on eBay at a good price. The 'Lagerfeld Man' was completely unknown to me until then. The scent starts off rather unharmoniously sour, citrusy, yet with a minimal floral sweetness. However, this opening is quickly replaced by woody notes that shape the further development. I su...
