What does Reykjavik smell like?

It opens cool and slightly sharp with sea mist, cardamom and pink pepper. In the heart, rosemary, sage and mist note bring a green, herbal air. Vetiver, cedarwood and amber settle it onto a dry, woody base.

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate. Spring, summer and fall are picked about equally, while winter trails behind. Leisure, daily wear and business get the most votes. Nearly half of the voters read it as masculine.
