What does Fiore di Cotone smell like?

It opens with the brightness of bergamot and orange, while cinnamon and thyme add spice. In the heart, lavender, cardamom and artemisia come forward, and ISO-E-Super gives this stage a light, synthetic texture. The base of vanilla, musk and sandalwood settles into something creamy and soft.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Voters lean towards spring and fall, and towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Masculine and feminine votes sit close together, which puts its character somewhere in between. Câline Infinite Navy and Phlur Not Your Baby have a similar profile.
