SweetWhat does Mandarino di Sicilia smell like?
It opens with bergamot, Sicilian green mandarin orange, blood orange and lemon, bright with a lightly sweet fruity touch. Spearmint and petitgrain add a green, aquatic note, and cedarwood, musk and patchouli stay soft underneath.
Most voters pick summer and spring, mainly for leisure and daily wear, with office and sport close behind. Longevity and sillage are moderate. It leans slightly masculine, though many read it as feminine.
