What does Pont. Max. smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters say it stays on skin for a long time. Autumn and winter lead, spring follows closely, and summer trails. It suits leisure, evening and night-out wear. Voters lean slightly masculine, though a sizeable group finds it feminine.

It opens with myrrh, benzoin, amber and frankincense: a resinous, spicy, smoky warmth. Jasmine adds a soft floral touch in the heart, while the marine notes lighten the weight. Virginia cedar settles the scent onto a woody base. Arte Profumi Samharam and Filippo Sorcinelli Santa Casa have a close profile.
