What does Rare Reef smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick summer, then spring, and daily wear, leisure and sport lead the occasions. Most voters read it as masculine or modern.

Grapefruit, orange, coriander and mint open it with a bright lift. Basil, violet leaf and apricot sit in the heart, while amberwood, fig and date add a sweet base. Fresh, aquatic and green accords dominate.
