What does Blue Talisman (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter stays in the background. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most common settings. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Votes on character lean masculine and modern, with a sizeable share calling it feminine.

The top of bergamot, mandarin orange, pear and ginger gives a bright, citrusy start. The heart turns floral and woody, with aquatic and sweet tones alongside. In the base, musk, Akigalawood® and Ambrofix settle it onto a clean, woody footing. The overall impression is fresh, modern and slightly synthetic. Its profile is close to Montagne Parfums Bleu Talisman and Azzaro Chrome Pure.
