Néroli Botanica

Most voters pick spring and summer, while fall and winter trail far behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the favoured settings, which fits its light, easygoing build. Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Feminine is the most common verdict, yet a good share of voters call it masculine, so it reads as open to either.

It opens with pink pepper, Madagascar pepper, ginger and turmeric leaf, a sharp, spicy freshness. In the heart, neroli, orange blossom and jasmine sambac give it a floral weight. In the base, sandalwood, benzoin and vetiver soften it and settle it onto a woody footing.
