Missoni

Wave EDT

2020

Allure Homme Sport's clean citrus crossed with Versace Pour Homme's herbal freshness — a Mediterranean day-scent that smells more expensive than it is.

The take

What works

  • Splits the difference between Allure Homme Sport and Versace Pour Homme
  • Bright sea-citrus opening over a clean lavender-vetiver base
  • Effortlessly office- and warm-weather-friendly

Trade-offs

  • Moderate projection — stays fairly close after the first hour
  • The citrus-aromatic lane is crowded; it doesn't reinvent it
