Elie Saab L'Homme Eau de Parfum 50ml Spray Ghost Black pepper and bergamot open

Black pepper and bergamot open sharp

then a hit of amber and sandalwood settles into something warmer — not floral-sweet

let it settle for a minute

longer on clothes if you layer it

Nordic berry extract sits in the formula — blackcurrant and cloudberry

Elie Saab L'Homme Eau de Parfum 50ml Spray Ghost Black pepper and bergamot openThe opening is crisp ginger and ambroxan that clean, soapy mineral note that smells expensive without trying. Elie Saab pads it out with ambrette seed and a whisper of cedarwood, so it reads less cologne and more cologne that took effort. 50ml EDP, four to six hours from skin. Two sprays in the morning sits comfortably under dress code without apologising for being there.
