What does Moonage Daydream smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure, business and daily wear leading the occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are almost level, so the scent leans neither way.

The top of grapefruit, Bulgarian lavender, galbanum and Calabrian neroli opens citrusy and green. In the heart, Indonesian patchouli, amber, Egyptian geranium and blackcurrant add a fruity, earthy turn. The base of tonka bean, sandalwood, musk and oakmoss dries down woody and soft.
