What does Fico di Amalfi smell like?

It opens with a bright citrus layer of Italian bergamot, Italian lemon and grapefruit. In the heart, jasmine, fig nectar and pink pepper come forward, with the fruity sweetness balanced by green and aquatic tones. The base of cedarwood, benzoin and fig wood settles it onto a soft, woody ground.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters recommend summer, then spring, and it is picked for leisure, daily wear and the office. It draws votes as both masculine and feminine, sitting between the two. Lattafa Pride Pisa and Widian Granada have a close profile.
