What does Zest Z&T smell like?
Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, with evenings and nights out well behind. It sits between masculine and feminine, light and clean in feel.
It opens with juniper, Guatemala cardamom, pink pepper, gin and lemon vervain, a bright, peppery start. Black pepper, clary sage and Indian coriander carry the spice through the heart. As it dries, Philippine elemi, Virginia cedar and Indonesian patchouli lay down a woody base. Overall it reads fresh, citrusy and green.
