What does Phoenicus smell like?

It opens with bergamot and cardamom alongside woody notes, giving a fresh, lightly spicy start. The heart brings moss, frankincense, green tea and gaiac wood, softened by floral notes. It dries down to sandalwood, copaiba balsam and moss, leaving an overall impression that is green, woody and slightly creamy.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while autumn and winter trail behind. Leisure, business and evening wear are the closest fits. Voters split between calling it masculine and feminine, so it sits fairly close to the middle despite the men's label. Chloé Cedrus and Meo Fusciuni Encore du Temps share a close profile.
