What does Grin smell like?

Green pepper, galbanum and violet leaf open it sharp, fresh and slightly spicy. In the heart, Turkish rose and Bulgarian rose join Jasminum auriculatum and Tasmanian boronia for a soft floral turn. Vetiver, oud and oakmoss dry it down woody and earthy in the classic chypre manner.

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without fading quickly. It is described as a women's fragrance. Ayala Moriel Rainforest and Hermès Amazone have a close profile.
