What does Wild Desires smell like?

Citrus notes, green apple and bergamot give it a bright, fruity opening. In the heart, cinnamon, geranium and cedar leaf add a spicy warmth. As it settles, tonka bean, cedarwood and vanilla sweeten it and pull it towards a soft woodiness, with an aquatic edge lingering behind.

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters recommend it for spring, summer and fall, and for leisure, daily and business wear; fewer pick winter. Voters lean masculine on character, though it can also read as unisex. Birkholz Aqua Wissemara and Arabian Oud Ehsas Khas have a close profile.
