What does Legacy smell like?

The opening is fresh and citrusy, with grapefruit and mandarin giving a fruity brightness and Madagascar pepper adding a light edge. In the heart, coriander, geranium and cinnamon build a spicy middle layer. Patchouli, cypriol and amber lead the base, and the scent dries down woody, sweet and warm.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the sample of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. Its mix of freshness and spicy sweetness suits everyday wear. Niche 4 All Vanilla Oud and Hermès Eau de Mandarine Ambrée have a close profile.
