The Scent: Notes, Structure & Dry-Down
360 Red For Men opens with lime, bergamot, cinnamon, orange, mandarin orange, cloves and nutmeg — an assertive first impression that carries across a room. As the opening settles, the composition pivots to its heart of lavender and coriander. The final act — the part that outlasts the working day — is musk, patchouli, sandalwood, vetiver, red cedar and oakmoss.
Strip it back to the bones and the profile reads citrus, fresh spicy — easy to place and easy to wear.
