What does Armani Privé - Vétiver d'Hiver / Vétiver Babylone smell like?

Despite the name, it isn't a winter perfume: most voters pick summer and spring, while autumn and winter trail far behind. Daily wear, leisure and the office are the occasions it is most often matched with. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Voters read it as somewhat more masculine, though a good number call it feminine.

Bergamot, citron and mandarin orange give the opening a bright, fruity citrus lift. Green cardamom, coriander and pink pepper add spice in the heart. Vetiver, patchouli and aniseed lay a woody, earthy base underneath. The result is fresh, green and lightly spicy. Cartier Déclaration Cologne and Adolfo Dominguez Agua Fresca have a close profile.
