What does Writer smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, with winter chosen less often. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and is mostly seen as masculine and modern.

It opens with lemon, mandarin orange, green apple and lavender for a bright start. In the heart, elemi resin and Egyptian geranium soften the edges. As it dries, vetiver, white musk, ambergris and patchouli leave a woody, slightly sweet trail. Armaf Hunter Intense (Eau de Toilette) and Calvin Klein Eternity for Men Air have a close profile.
