What does Rebus smell like?
The top notes of bergamot, lemon and galbanum give a bright, green-tinged start, and orris root adds a soft, powdery edge. In the heart, lavender and violet lead while oud begins to show. The base of oud, musk, sandalwood and amber settles into a warm, woody foundation.
Voters rate its longevity as very strong and its sillage as strong, though the ratings come from only a handful of votes. Its fresh, woody character reads comfortably on both men and women. Casamorati Mefisto Gentiluomo and Ajmal Amir One have a close profile.
