About This Perfume

La Rive Athletic Man smells like fresh green rosemary gel, woody vetiver. It opens with galbanum and rosemary, moves into sandalwood, vetiver and woody notes and settles on amber, oakmoss and patchouli. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

This eau de toilette is best in spring, fall and winter and is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for casual days.

Wearers report that 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 woody and grounded for casual days.
  • Sample first if: spicy is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike woody fragrances.

Around $20.
