For Him
Narciso Rodriguez · Eau de Toilette (EDT) · 2007
≈ $90 · 100ml · approx. retail
A smooth aromatic fougere built on the cult violet-leaf-and-patchouli pairing that conjures a damp, mineral 'wet concrete' coolness over earthy depth. Lavender and pink pepper lift the opening before warm musk and amber settle into a clean, understated masculine drydown.
