What does Tempest smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few voters have rated them, so treat that as a first impression. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. It reads mostly masculine and modern.
The opening brings vervain, mandarin orange, apple and pink pepper, bright and lightly spicy. In the heart, birch leaf, geranium and neroli add a floral, green touch, with leather and currant softening it. The base settles on patchouli, vetiver and oak wood, rounded by musk and styrax. Astrophil & Stella 8 Days a Week and Zara Lush Vetiver have a close profile.
