What does CK Free Energy smell like?

It opens with bitter orange, galbanum and bergamot, a citrusy, green freshness. In the heart, lavender, black pepper and jasmine bring a floral, spicy turn. In the base, cedarwood, musk and ginger settle it onto a woody, slightly sweet footing.

Longevity and sillage are rated weak, though with few votes these ratings are tentative. Its light build suits everyday wear. Its profile is close to Wackelwasser Dark and Zara Man Green Savage.
