What does Essence of the Park (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate: it stays noticeable through the day without filling the room. Voters suit it most to leisure, daily wear and the office, while evening and night out come well behind. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads as open to either.

Lemon, tangerine, bergamot and marine notes open it fresh. At the heart, magnolia, neroli and pink pepper bring a floral, lightly spicy green side. In the base, vetiver, vanilla and white musk soften it and add a gentle sweetness. Laboratorio Olfattivo Noblige and Penhaligon's No. 33 have a close profile.
