Pierre Bourdon

"Good Life for Men is a fresh, green, and aromatic Eau de Toilette launched by Davidoff in 1998. Its opening combines fig leaf, bergamot, melon, lavender, and grapefruit for a bright, crisp introduction with a subtly fruity character. Tea, magnolia, violet, black currant, lemon, and pelargonium form a distinctive floral-green heart. The drydown becomes warmer and more textural through clover, sandalwood, almond, and amber. The composition is notable for balancing refreshing citrus and greenery with soft floral tones and a lightly sweet woody base. It is regarded as a memorable and unusual masculine fragrance from the late 1990s, particularly because of its prominent tea note."

Reviews Summary

“Good Life for Men is widely regarded as a very good and distinctive fragrance, often praised for its fresh green opening, aromatic character, unusual tea note, and balanced blend of melon, lavender, bergamot, and grapefruit. Its distribution history was uneven, and its discontinued status has made vintage bottles more sought after.”
