What does Alaska smell like?

Grapefruit and bergamot build the citrus side, while pineapple and melon add a fruity sweetness on top. Aquatic and green accords keep it airy, and lavender, jasmine, sandalwood and amber leave a light woody, spicy base underneath.

Both longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer; daily wear, leisure and sport lead, and evening is rarely chosen. It reads masculine and modern. Aigner Clear Day for Men and Adidas Team Force have a close profile.
