What does Himalaya smell like?

It wears at a moderate strength, with moderate longevity and sillage. Most voters pick spring and summer, while few choose winter. Daily wear, business and leisure lead the occasions, and the character reads clearly masculine.

It opens with a fresh citrus lift from lemon, bergamot and mandarin orange. In the heart, juniper berry, lavender, pepper, nutmeg and gun powder add a spicy, green edge, softened by jasmine. The base of sandalwood, cedarwood, vetiver and tonka bean is woody with a light sweetness. Parfums de Marly Sedley and Floris Cefiro have a close profile.
