What does Giardino di Ercole smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn, then winter and spring, while summer trails far behind. It sits close to leisure and evening wear, and reads more masculine than feminine.
It opens fresh and green with bergamot, juniper berry and lavender. The heart turns spicy and resinous with frankincense, saffron and black pepper. The base of sandalwood, amber and patchouli adds a woody, smoky, oriental foundation. Lattafa Mohra and Amouage Interlude 53 have a close profile.
