To Be Free to Dare Men
POLICE To Be Free To Dare Men is an eau de toilette with a fresh, spicy and aromatic character and a clean, airy finish. The opening lifts with bright citrus, sharpened by a touch of black pepper, which gives the first impression a lively, energetic edge.
As it settles, a soft violet leaf heart introduces a greener, slightly powdery quality, while warmer amber and woody tones gather beneath. Patchouli and cedarwood add depth to the base, so the scent moves from crisp and open toward something more grounded and dry.
Sillage is moderate, so the fragrance tends to sit comfortably close to the skin and is best judged at arm's reach rather than across a room. Longevity is also moderate, generally carrying through a working day, with a light reapplication for longer evenings.
The character suits a range of settings. It works in professional environments, relaxed casual wear and night out occasions, and its mix of freshness and warmth makes it adaptable across spring, summer, autumn and winter. It suits a man who wants a scent that feels confident without being heavy.
