Being given the gift of time, this contemporary perfume is richer, more potent and highly sought after. With a generous 45% concentration of perfume oil, Reflection 45 Man breaks new ground on this woody floral musk scent. Maturated and macerated for four months, it boldly reinterprets one of the House's iconic signatures through spicy top notes and textured florals that are designed to transcend time and place.

A fragrance is usually a mix of a concentrate (containing fragrant oils) and an alcoholic base. Some fragrances can also contain a bit of water and additives like liquid UV filters, stabilizers, or colourants. Therefore, fragrances with a higher fragrance concentration contain more perfume oils and less alcohol, and vice-versa.
