What does Bigarade Concentrée smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate: present without being heavy. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Voters lean slightly masculine, though a sizeable share finds it feminine.

Fresh, citrus and green accords lead, with floral and fruity touches alongside. Bitter orange gives a bright start, while cardamom and pink pepper add spice. Hay and cedarwood settle it onto a woody, slightly dry base. Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle Cologne Bigarade and Xerjoff Nio have a close profile.
