What does Boston smell like?
Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and winter is barely mentioned. Daily wear, leisure and business are the occasions it gets most votes for. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair number find it feminine.
The notes read as one whole rather than stages: bergamot and grapefruit bring the citrus lift, while petitgrain and neroli soften it toward green and floral. Lavender and spices add a dry edge, sea breeze keeps it airy, and cedarwood and vetiver give it a woody base.
