What does GF Ferré Lui smell like?

The opening is fresh, citrusy and green, built from aldehydes, bergamot, cardamom and artemisia. In the heart, coriander, nutmeg and heliotrope add a floral and spicy layer. The base settles on Atlas cedar, benzoin, patchouli and frankincense, giving a woody, resinous and earthy finish, with smoky and synthetic touches in the background.
