What does Royal Blend Nero smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, and it is recommended mainly for nights out and evenings. It leans masculine, though a fair number of voters call it feminine.
It opens fruity and gourmand with apple, date, bergamot and nutmeg. In the heart, cinnamon, saffron and dry woods bring out the spice and the woodiness. The base of vanilla, musk, tonka bean and benzoin leaves it creamy, resinous and sweet. Zimaya Sharaf Blend and Penhaligon's Kensington Amber have a close profile.
