What does Honiara smell like?

Honiara's longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer not far behind. It leans towards daily and leisure wear, and also picks up votes for business and evening. It sits between masculine and feminine, with no clear gender lean.

The notes read as a single whole: bergamot and citrus fruits carry the freshness, while melon and frangipani add a floral, fruity sweetness. Juniper and pine bring a cool, resinous edge; oakmoss and patchouli strengthen the woody side, and vanilla and ambergris soften it.
