Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays calm through the day. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and work are the most chosen occasions. Votes on character lean slightly masculine.
It opens with yuzu, basil and clove, a citrus freshness with a spicy warmth. In the heart, mint, rosemary and fennel add a green, herbal feel. The base dries down to vetiver, cedarwood and amber, leaving it woody and earthy. Angana Senteur de Terre and Goutal Les Colognes - Vétiver have a close profile.
