What does Intenso di Ginestra smell like?

The opening is a fresh citrus lift of bergamot, neroli and lemon leaf. In the heart, broom absolute, jasmine absolute and tuberose turn it floral and creamy. The base of vanilla, musk and sandalwood softens the sweetness and leaves a warm footing, with a spicy touch staying in the background.

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are tentative. It reads as a fresh yet soft floral that sits comfortably on men and women alike. Galimard Gelsomino and L'Erbolario Iris have a close profile.
