Citrus Fragrances for Men — Vivacity and Mediterranean Freshness

Citrus note fragrances are among the most universally appreciated in masculine perfumery — their immediate freshness, positive energy and lightness make them ideal companions for hot days, sport and professional contexts where discretion is required. Bergamot, Sicilian lemon, pink grapefruit, mandarin, lime — the nuances are infinite, each bringing its own personality to the hesperidic accord. The tradition of eau de cologne, hesperidic fragrances par excellence, dates back to the 18th century and has never stopped inspiring perfumers. Dior Eau Sauvage, created in 1966 by Edmond Roudnitska, is perhaps the most influential masculine hesperidic fragrance ever created — its bergamot-hedione accord of aerial lightness defined an entire aesthetic. Hermès Voyage offers a contemporary, woodier interpretation of masculine citrus that works in every season.
