What does Open Road smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate: present, but not heavy. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn a smaller share. Daily, leisure and business settings lead, and it can work for sport too. Most see its character as masculine and modern.

It opens with Sichuan pepper, Primofiore lemon and red apple, a mix of spice, sharp citrus and fruity freshness. Clary sage and lavender soften the heart. Vetiver, cedar and patchouli ground it in a woody base. Armaf Ventana and Bvlgari Aqva pour Homme Atlantiqve have a close profile.
