What does Akanesasu / あかねさす smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, so it neither disappears quickly nor fills a room. The vote count is small, which makes these ratings a rough guide only. Being unisex, it reads as suitable for anyone.

Fresh and citrus accords lead, with bergamot and orange giving a clear, sunny start. In the heart, jasmine sambac adds a soft floral touch. Vetiver anchors the base with green, woody and earthy tones, and a spicy edge runs through the dry character. Hermès Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver and Mazzolari Vetiver have a close profile.
