What does Aqua Allegoria Forte Bosca Vanilla smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall not far behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. Voters lean towards feminine, with modern in second place.

The top notes of bitter orange and eucalyptus give a fresh, citrusy start. In the heart, vanilla adds sweetness and a creamy softness, while everlasting flower brings floral and green touches. Driftwood and cypress settle underneath as a dry, woody base. The Merchant Of Venice Gold Regatta and Bottega Veneta Illusione Bois Nu have a close profile.
