What does Diorling (2012) smell like?

It opens fresh and green with bergamot, and jasmine adds a soft floral heart. Leather and patchouli take over in the base, settling the scent into a leathery, woody and earthy ground, with spicy and animalic touches kept in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it is chosen for evenings, leisure and nights out. Though made for women, some voters also read it as masculine. Cerruti 1881 Riviera and Guerlain Derby (2005) have a close profile.
