What does Geisha Vanilla Hinoki smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, then summer, while winter comes last. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, with evening and night out chosen less often.

Bergamot brings a citrus freshness that meets the spice of cardamom and clove, while Moroccan vanilla adds a creamy, gourmand sweetness. Hinoki cypress, cedarwood and amyris form a woody frame, and patchouli and leather give it a smoky, leathery depth. Trussardi Behind the Curtain Piazza alla Scala and Costume National Soul have a close profile.
