WoodyWhat does L'Amiral smell like?
Citrus comes first; mandarin and bergamot keep it fresh, green and lightly fruity. Lavender and menthol add an aquatic, airy feel, while sandalwood lays a woody base underneath. A touch of spice is there but stays in the background.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend summer and spring, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Though unisex, it reads mostly masculine.
