What does 6 Hours to Rio smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the vote count is small, so those ratings are best read with caution. Voters pick it most for leisure and daytime, with business and evening close behind. It reads neither masculine nor feminine.

It opens with guava, mango and pineapple for a sweet fruit note, while cardamom and ginger add a light spice and mandarin orange and bergamot keep the citrus bright. Rose and ambrette sit in the heart. The base of vetiver, sandalwood and amber gives it a woody footing. Bujairami Dominus and Creed Aventus Cologne have a close profile.
