What does Aquarius smell like?

It opens with kelp and pepper, giving a fresh, green and lightly spicy start. In the heart, ambergris and fir balsam blend the watery feel with a resinous edge. The base of oud, woods and styrax rests on an earthy, woody, faintly sweet ground.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though only a few votes stand behind those ratings. It suits men and women alike and doesn't lean clearly masculine or feminine. Tom Ford Oud Minérale and Maksim Perfume L'Oud Marin have a close profile.
