What does L'Exotique smell like?

Lemon zest, mandarin orange, orange zest and bergamot give it a bright citrus top line. Green notes cool it down, while ambergris leaves a soft, resinous trace underneath. Its floral and lightly fruity side, together with sweet, gourmand touches, softens the sharpness.

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate. It is chosen most for leisure, daily wear and the office, with some votes for sport and evenings. It reads equally well on anyone. Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim and Velixir Poseidon have a close profile.
