About This Perfume

Alfred Dunhill Pure comes across as cool, peppery lotus water with soft powder. Key notes are lotus leaf, white pepper and cardamom. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

This eau de toilette is best in spring and summer and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 2006.

In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something fresh and aquatic for casual days.
  • Sample first if: aquatic is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike fresh fragrances.

Around $36.
