What does New Look smell like?

The aldehydes give it a clean, slightly synthetic brightness, while the amber and frankincense pull it towards something resinous, smoky and spicy. The notes read as a single whole rather than in layers, and the powdery side stays in the background.

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters spread across all four seasons almost evenly, with spring just ahead; it is picked most for leisure and daily wear, with business in third place. Masculine and feminine votes are nearly equal, so it does not lean clearly to either side.
