EarthyWhat does Z Zegna New York smell like?
It opens with rum, moves into the green, earthy tones of artemisia at the heart, and settles on patchouli in the base. Fresh and green accords lead, while the sweet, spicy and woody sides stay in the background, with a synthetic edge running through.
Longevity and sillage are moderate, though based on few votes. It is positioned as a masculine scent and has been discontinued. Perfumes with a close profile include Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 + Patchouli and Gucci Fading Autumn.
