What does Moko Maori (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. It reads slightly more masculine to voters, though a good share call it feminine, so it moves comfortably between the two.

It opens with New Zealand flax and tussock grass, which give a green, airy feel. The heart brings silver fern, manuka myrtle and kowhai, and the base of kanuka and lichen settles into a woody, faintly creamy and spicy ground. A synthetic accord sits quietly behind the freshness.
