What does Silencio smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. With no season or occasion votes to go on, nothing can be said about those, but its unisex character suits both men and women. The rating counts are small, so these impressions are tentative.

It opens fresh, green and spicy with arborvitae, thyme and cardamom. The heart of fir, geranium and cypriol adds a resinous, earthy air. Cedar and patchouli then settle it onto a woody base with a faint sweetness. Gucci Fading Autumn and Stora Skuggan Hexensalbe have a close profile.
