What does Reserve Collection - № 18: Palo Santo smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Voters don't tie it to one season: winter, autumn and spring are level, with summer a little behind. Daily wear, leisure and business are the settings that come up most. Value for money is rated highly.

A citrusy freshness and a green edge lead the scent. Cardamom adds a spicy touch, while palo santo and papyrus lay down a woody base. A soft powdery note sits in the background, with a faintly synthetic air at times. Maison Crivelli Papyrus Moléculaire and Cartier Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur have a close profile.
