What does Ballena de la Pampa (Perfume) smell like?

Musk sits at the top, sweetgrass in the heart and ambergris in the base. Fresh and green accords lead, with sweetness, spice and a dry woodiness behind them; powdery, earthy and animal touches and a synthetic edge give it a cool, slightly odd depth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, then fall, and it is mostly worn for leisure and daily use, with some voting for the office. Voters are split between masculine and feminine. Montale Amber Musk and Serge Lutens Clair de musc have a close profile.
