Petitgrain, bergamot and galbanum open on a citrusy, green note. In the heart, green tea, mastic and pink pepper add a resinous, lightly spicy touch. Cedar, hay and maté ground it in a woody, earthy base.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, and it is chosen for leisure, daily wear and the office. More voters call it masculine or modern, though a fair share find it feminine. L'Occitane en Provence Eau de Cade and Harry Lehmann HL.22 have a close profile.
