What does Virens smell like?
Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Voters spread their picks fairly evenly across all four seasons, with spring and fall slightly ahead. It is chosen mostly for leisure, nights out and evenings, and less for the office or daily wear.
It opens with rosewood, bergamot and orange for a fresh start, while jasmine adds a soft floral heart. The base of cedarwood, patchouli, amber and white musk takes over, and resinous, animal and leathery shades give it an edge.
