WoodyWhat does Costarela (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Most voters pick summer and spring, with leisure, daily wear and the office the most chosen settings. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Voters are split between reading it as masculine and feminine.
It opens with Italian bergamot and saffron, the citrus brightness carrying a light touch of spice. In the heart, sand and marine notes bring the aquatic side. The base of Virginia cedar, amber and ambroxan settles it onto a sweet, woody footing.
