SpicyWhat does Desire Silver (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Bergamot, mandarin orange and oxygen keep the opening bright and airy. The heart holds aquatic notes, cardamom and violet, where the aquatic and floral accords come forward and the cardamom adds a mild spice. In the base, vetiver, amber and silver birch leave it on a woody, slightly sweet footing.
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though from a small sample. The fresh character suits everyday wear. La Rive Extreme Story and Jil Sander Sun Men (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
