8 – fragrance for men 100 ml opens with Calabrian bergamot, grapefruit and Sicilian lemon. These three citrus top notes establish the fresh side of the composition, bringing together the distinct characters of bergamot, grapefruit and lemon before the fragrance moves away from its opening and into the warmer notes of its middle and base.

Sandalwood occupies the middle of the fragrance, marking the transition from the citrus opening to the deeper base. Musk, ambergris and cedar form the bottom notes beneath it. This sequence gives 8 a clearly arranged structure, with a woody middle leading into a three-note base that completes the composition without losing the freshness established at the top.

Freshness, elegance and rugged masculinity define the finished profile, with its different layers creating a fragrance that is neither solely citrus-led nor wholly woody in character. It would suit someone who appreciates a fresh opening followed by sandalwood and a deeper base, whether chosen for a personal scent collection or given to someone whose preferences already run towards this combination of notes.
