Skunky's take: Like opening a window: the room feels lighter at once.

What does Herrera Aqua (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the small number of votes calls for caution. It has an easygoing, clean character and is made for men.
It opens cool with bergamot, mandarin orange, bamboo and fig leaf. In the heart, white pepper, neroli, rosemary, French lavender and cardamom add a light spicy and herbal edge. The base of tonka bean and white amber sweetens it and settles on a woody footing.
