What does Basilica di Assisi smell like?

It opens with styrax, tonka bean, benzoin and amber, a sweet, resinous base. In the heart, labdanum, rosa alba, patchouli and dried fruits add a floral, fruity softness. Bergamot, petitgrain, lemon and frankincense run through the base, pairing the citrus with an incense-like haze; spicy, woody and powdery tones sit alongside.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good. Most pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards leisure time, evenings and nights out, and reads as neither clearly masculine nor feminine, sitting somewhere in between.
