What does Hangover Meditation smell like?

It opens bright with bergamot, lemon and apple, while cinnamon adds a light spicy edge. In the heart, orange blossom, cardamom, plum and marine notes come forward, so the aquatic and fruity sides run together. The base of musk, patchouli, amber and driftwood settles it onto a soft, woody footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most named settings. More voters read it as masculine, yet it stays modern and unisex in feel. Rasasi Hawas for Him and Afnan Turathi (Blue) have a close profile.
