What does Note di Colonia II smell like?

It opens with bergamot, orange and grapefruit for a bright citrus lift, while cardamom and basil add a spicy, green edge. Sandalwood and gaiac wood form a woody heart, and vetiver with musk leaves a clean, dry finish.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, and its light, cologne-like build fits business, leisure and daily wear. Most voters read it as masculine, though it works as unisex. Roger & Gallet Cédrat and Molinard Bambou have a close profile.
