What does Painter smell like?

The notes read as a single whole: the warmth of the pepper, the sea-like aquatic tone of the algae and the dry, woody greenness of vetiver blend together. Fresh and aquatic lead the accords, with a slightly synthetic brightness running through it.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring, summer and fall, while winter stays in the background. It suits daily wear, leisure and the office. More voters call it masculine than feminine, and many see it as modern. Pantomime Act 5 and Davidoff Cool Water Oceanic Edition have a close profile.
