Platinum cologne for men was launched by Arsenal in 1996. It is a refreshing oriental spicy cologne with the decanter in the shape of a hand grenade. The scent opens with refreshing top notes of bergamot, lemon, galbanum, and mandarin orange. Forming the heart of the fragrance are notes of lavender, anise, neroli, and violet leaves. The base notes are aromatic and contain essences of incense, vetiver, and wood. This cologne is long lasting with a heavy sillage. Parisian fragrance company Gilles Cantuel created this cologne and has been producing fragrances since 1985. The oriental spicy group of fragrance combines the sensuality of spices with essences in the oriental family of fragrance such as resins, musk, and wood. Oriental colognes have a dominant amber note from the use of musk, exotic resins, vanilla, and various wood essences.
