Rive Gauche Pour Homme by Yves Saint Laurent

A lavender and oakmoss based fougere puncuated by clove. Rive Gauche smells similar to traditional shaving creams such as Barbasol. The scent is fairly linear and there is a dry, synthetic note that you don't find in traditional colognes. There might be some dry vetiver in the base along with oakmoss. This feels like a modern interpretation of traditional colognes like Brut but without the floral complexity.
