Entrance
Entrance by Andrea Maack is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, pink pepper and nutmeg, moves into patchouli, coriander and geranium and dries down to amber, vanilla, vetiver and cedarwood. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
Heart
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Coriander Warm seed spice, slightly citrusy. A quiet workhorse.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
