What does South of 5th smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. Being unisex, it reads comfortably on both men and women.

The top opens with Siberian stone pine, pink pepper, neroli and marine notes. Tuberose, Damask rose and nutmeg form a floral heart. In the base, Indonesian patchouli, praliné and Virginia cedar sweeten the scent and settle it onto a creamy, woody footing. Adopt' Mers et Océans and Carner Helix have a close profile.
