Who is the Taurus Man? What are the qualities of the Taurus man? What scents do Taurus Men like?
A Taurus Man is the man born between the months of April 20 – May 20. Of all the star signs, the Taurus happens to be the manliest and most masculine of them all, but then, he worships the feet of Venus, the feminine goddess of love.
For that reason, it makes him the most attractive, and sensual of men, with an irresistible power of enchantment.
Also worthy of note is how decisive the Taurus man is. He has a well-stated objective and set out goals, and he is unrelenting in achieving them.
When it comes to the social aspect of life, the Taurus man is not found lagging behind. He is very plain, professional, and real at enjoying what life has to offer. He also loves to share and enjoy with those he loves.
Oh! Lest I forget, he is one man you can depend on and he’d never be disappointed. He can go as far as displeasing himself to please you.
Other admirable traits of the Taurus man are his calmness, serenity and patience. He can be stubborn and hardly get angry, but when pushed, he can be a raging beast.
Talk about his perfumes. It is obvious that the Taurus man would not settle for anything less of a masculine and manly scent based on his personality. As an Earthy sign man, he would go for woody based scent.
The scents of amber, sandalwood, musk, cocoa and vanilla (because he is a sweet man) are very much welcome to him.
The Taurus man fancies perfumes on the higher spectrum and those that convey his taste of the finest things of life.
