OrientalWhat does 1881 Bella Notte pour Homme smell like?
The top is juniper, Sichuan pepper, coriander and key lime, a bright, citrusy start. In the heart, night-blooming jasmine, nutmeg, black cardamom and Ceylonese cinnamon bring the spice forward. Cedar, vanilla, patchouli and musk sweeten the base and settle it onto a woody ground.
Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, with summer the least favored. It is worn from daily use and leisure to evenings and the office. Masculine dominates the character votes. Arabian Oud Amiri and Ahmed Al Maghribi Amiri have a close profile.
