In plain words

The main accords of Givenchy pour Homme are woody and citrus. It opens with Mandarin Orange and Grapefruit, reveals Vetiver and Lavender Extract at its heart, and dries down to Cedar and Labdanum. It lasts a moderate time and projects moderately; people reach for it in spring and autumn, mostly by day.
