What does Colonia Il Profumo smell like?

The top is blood orange, Italian bergamot, petitgrain and grapefruit. In the heart, ylang-ylang, rosemary and orange leaf absolute add a floral, green touch. Vetiver and patchouli settle underneath and dry the scent down on an earthy base.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most common settings. Voters lean towards a masculine, classic reading. Acqua di Parma Colonia Il Profumo Millesimato and Dior Eau Sauvage Cologne have a close profile.
