In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Marbert Man Personality hits the nose with an uncompromising herbal bite. Artemisia and pungent basil lead the charge alongside sharp bergamot. It feels bracingly old school.

Reviews →

Pierre Cardin's 1986 release presents a salty, dark green ocean experience far removed from today's sugary aquatics. It leads with a bitter breeze of artemisia and basil, settling into a heavy base of oakmoss and warm amber. This scent suits mature men who appreciate retro, mossy structures.
