What does Gutenberg Limited smell like?

Voters lean towards fall, then winter and spring, and pick summer least. It is put forward for business, leisure, daytime and evening alike. Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though few votes stand behind those ratings.

Bright citrus is followed by aniseed and thyme, which add a light green, herbal edge. In the heart, coriander, lavender, clove and nutmeg bring the spice forward. The base rests on earthy vetiver and oakmoss, softened and sweetened by vanilla and amber. The overall feel is woody, powdery and slightly oriental. Gutenberg Man and Guerlain Héritage have a close profile.
