What does Kreuzfahrerwasser smell like?

Thyme, basil and rosemary lead, while citrus notes and lavender keep the herbal character bright. Damask rose and magnolia add a soft floral touch, and frankincense with Indian patchouli gives it a resinous, earthy and slightly smoky base.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak. Voters spread the four seasons almost evenly and mostly pick it for leisure and daily wear. Most read it as masculine and classic. Bogner Deep Forest and Knize Knize Sec have a close profile.
