The Story
Dunhill for Men (1934) Body Spray is a lighter take on the classic fougère that started it all. It opens with bright lavender and lemon, then settles into a clean, herbal heart of geranium and clary sage. The base is a soft, powdery blend of oakmoss and tonka bean. It's a refreshing, everyday scent that honors the original without being overpowering.
