EarthyWhat does Cape Wrath smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters read it mostly as masculine and modern, though a fair share call it feminine.
It opens with pink pepper, elemi resin and galbanum, giving a green, spicy start. Mastic, geranium and frankincense add a resinous warmth in the heart. In the base, oakmoss absolute, seagrass and vetiver settle into an earthy, aquatic woodiness. Thomas De Monaco Grand Beau and Fischersund Útilykt have a close profile.
