What does Horruit smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It reads equally well on men and women. No season or occasion clearly stands out.

The opening pairs the brightness of grapefruit and bergamot with the juicy sweetness of pineapple. In the heart, jasmine and lily bring a floral side that coconut softens into something creamy, with amber adding warmth. The dry-down leans on amber, woody notes and caramel, leaving a sweet, creamy and slightly synthetic feel. Khadlaj Island and Gritti Monica have a close profile.
