What does T.Shelby smell like?

It opens with a bright, fruity citrus of pineapple, lemon, grapefruit and bergamot. In the heart, ozonic notes, orange blossom absolute and myrtle lead that freshness towards a floral, green side. The base of fucus absolute, oakmoss absolute and earthy notes grounds it in an aquatic yet earthy footing, while cedarwood and ambergris add a soft depth.

Voters find both its longevity and its sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a tendency. Its fresh, aquatic character makes it a cooling choice in warm weather. Thomas Kosmala Nọ 4 - Sport and Kinetic Perfumes Verdigris have a close profile.
