What does Hudson River NY smell like?

It opens with bergamot and geranium, a bright citrus start. At the heart, lavender, coriander and cardamom add a spicy, lightly aromatic frame. The base brings vanilla and tonka bean sweetness, while cedarwood and precious woods ground it in a woody, powdery finish.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It suits evenings, nights out, leisure and the office. It leans masculine and classic, though some voters read it as feminine. Riiffs Fareed and Guerlain Héritage Eau de Toilette share a close profile.
