What does Don Algodón smell like?

The opening is bright: bergamot, mandarin orange and lemon keep it fresh and lively. In the heart, tuberose, lily of the valley and jasmine add a soft floral layer. The base of vetiver, cedar, musk and amber settles into a calm, powdery, woody finish, with green and spicy touches running through it.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though the small number of votes means this is only a rough guide. Its fresh, floral character suits everyday wear, and it reads as feminine. Penhaligon's Quercus and Floris Jermyn Street have a close profile.
