SpicyWhat does Icon Racing (Red Edition) smell like?
It opens with grapefruit, orange and mandarin orange in a bright citrus cluster, with black pepper and petitgrain adding a sharper green edge. The heart brings cypress, geranium, pimento and frankincense forward. In the base, vetiver, cedarwood, tonka bean, amber and musk soften everything into a sweet, creamy, powdery woodiness.
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though only a small number have voted. The fresh, citrusy build suits everyday wear and reads clearly masculine. Zara Heritage Selection - Summer 9.0 and Memo Paris Kedu have a close profile.
