What does Pistachio smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters recommend fall and winter, spring follows, and summer trails well behind. It leans towards leisure and evening wear, and reads slightly more feminine than masculine, though plenty of voters call it masculine.

It opens with pistachio and cardamom, then moves to roasted almond and more pistachio at the heart. In the base, pistachio carries on beside patchouli and vanilla cream, while woody, earthy and powdery touches keep the sweetness in check. Profumum Roma Luce and Maya Njie Vanilj have a close profile.
