What does Aurica smell like?

Aurica's longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is most often chosen for a night out, daily wear and leisure. It reads slightly more masculine than feminine, though many voters see it as feminine.

It opens with mandarin orange, pineapple and cedar leaf, a fresh and fruity start. In the heart, jasmine and rose bring a floral tone while Cambodian oud adds spicy, woody depth. At the base, vetiver, sandalwood, vanilla and amber sweeten and soften it. Montblanc Individuel (Eau de Toilette) and Harry Lehmann Sucre have a close profile.
