What does Lavish smell like?

Bergamot and lemon open it brightly, while nutmeg, orange blossom and rose add a soft floral and spicy heart. It then dries down to gaiac wood, vetiver, cedar and patchouli, with amber and moss rounding out the woody base with an earthy depth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters suggest spring and summer, and leisure, business and daily wear lead the occasions. Close to half of voters read it as masculine, and a good share call it classic. Creed Vetiver Geranium and Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza have a close profile.
