What does Mefisto smell like?
It opens bright and slightly green with Calabrian lemon, grapefruit, bergamot and lavender. Rose absolute and Florentine iris soften that sharpness and bring a floral touch in the heart. In the base, cedarwood, amber, musk and Mysore sandalwood settle it onto a warm, woody ground, while the aquatic and spicy sides stay in the background.
Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters call it masculine, though many also see it as modern or classic. Casamorati Mefisto Gentiluomo and Comptoir Cologne Bois de Cèdre / Cedar Wood have a close profile.
