What does Gothika smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the small number of votes means these figures are tentative. It does not lean masculine or feminine and can be worn by anyone.

It opens with bergamot and davana, with clary sage, rose otto and ambrette at the heart. Vetiver, black musk and immortelle make up the base, and the floral side is balanced by a green, earthy dryness. Aēsop Rōzu and Pineward Nocturnis have a close profile.
