What does Porto Vintage smell like?

It opens with aniseed and cardamom softened by candied orange. In the heart, cinnamon, ginger and clove add a spicy warmth. The base of patchouli, gingerbread and musk carries it to a sweet, gourmand finish, and the citrus and fruity accords stay present within that sweetness.

Voters find the longevity strong and the sillage good, though the vote count is small, so treat those ratings loosely. It is chosen most for evenings, then leisure and nights out, with business and daily wear well behind. Feminine and masculine votes run close, with classic following. Its profile is close to Serge Lutens Baptême du Feu and Costume National Homme.
