What does Hanuman smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters suggest spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, though it can also be worn at night. Masculine and feminine votes are almost level, so it sits evenly between the two.

The top notes of blackcurrant, bergamot, lemon and Sicilian blood orange open fresh, fruity and citrusy. In the heart, cyclamen, osmanthus, magnolia and neroli add a soft floral note. In the base, cedar, amber, sandalwood, vetiver and musk settle it onto a sweet, creamy, woody footing.
