What does Supernova smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters recommend spring and summer, with autumn behind and winter last. Daily wear, leisure and business get the most votes among occasions. In character votes, masculine and modern lead.
The opening of orange, Italian bergamot, grapefruit and mandarin orange is bright and clean. Marine notes, pineapple and apple then add a fruity freshness at the heart. In the base, ginger, white musk, ambergris, patchouli and oakmoss settle it on a woody, lightly spicy, chypre-leaning ground.
