What does I Don't Know What smell like?

It opens with bergamot's bright citrus; in the heart, vetiveryl acetate and ISO-E-Super build a woody, slightly spicy and deliberately synthetic backdrop. The base of civettone, Firsantol® and Ambrox stretches that clean, fine texture out.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind and winter trailing. Leisure, daily and business wear get the most votes. It leans a little masculine in voters' eyes, though many also call it feminine.
