What does Aroma Allegoria Exalting smell like?
It lasts well and projects moderately. Most voters pick fall, with winter a clear second; night outs and evenings lead, though business and daily wear are close behind. Many call it feminine, and some describe it as classic.
Bergamot, bitter orange and cypress give a fresh citrus start, with cinnamon adding spice from the first moments. The heart brings coriander, cardamom, neroli and Atlas cedar. In the base, vanilla, tonka bean, sandalwood and pepper carry it into a sweet, woody, powdery warmth. Guerlain Secret Intention and Lolita Lempicka L (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
