What does Tantrum smell like?

It opens cool with mint and bergamot, while green pepper and galbanum add a bitter, leafy edge. In the heart, sandalwood and iris soften that sharpness, and tagetes and maté keep the green tone going. The base of vetiver, Virginia cedar and ambrox carries the citrusy, spicy character onto a woody footing as it dries down. Overall it stays crisp and dry, well away from sweetness. Caswell-Massey 2571 and Wide Society Acqua Travelis have a close profile.
