What does Remain smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, then spring, while summer trails behind. Leisure, night out and evening wear draw almost equal votes. Voters read it as slightly more masculine, though feminine votes are not far behind.
It opens with bergamot and mandarin orange alongside carrot and pimento. Jasmine, ylang-ylang and vanilla lead the heart. In the base, sandalwood, patchouli and tonka bean close it on a creamy, powdery and sweet warmth. Première Note Aura Tonka and Xerjoff Blue Hope have a close profile.
