What does Vesna Cologne smell like?

It opens with lemon, tomato leaf and black tea, so the citrus freshness meets a thin, leafy green. In the heart, magnolia and pineapple add a soft floral and fruity layer. The base of dried fruits and nagarmotha leaves it woody, slightly earthy and creamy.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it leaves a comfortable trail close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is mentioned most for daily, leisure and business wear. It reads somewhat masculine, though feminine and modern votes are not far behind. Galimard Eau de Romarin and The Merchant Of Venice Esperidi Water have a close profile.
