What does High Voltage smell like?

The citrus top opens bright and fresh, with a fruity, sweet edge. In the heart, amberwood and ambroxan come forward, and patchouli and sandalwood in the base settle it onto a woody, lightly spicy footing, while the animal accord stays in the background.

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as strong, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. It reads neither masculine nor feminine and suits anyone. Xerjoff Uden and Aaron Terence Hughes Neon have a close profile.
