What does Yacht Club smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn and winter further behind. It leans towards leisure and evening wear, and more voters call it masculine and modern than feminine.

Bergamot gives the top a fresh lift. In the heart, labdanum, frankincense and violet build a resinous, spicy and powdery layer. In the base, honey and vanilla sweeten the scent, while leather adds a leathery edge under the creamy softness. The aquatic and woody sides keep the sweetness from turning heavy.
