What does Mexican Cactus smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the vote count is small, so these ratings are tentative. There are no season or occasion votes, so it's hard to say when it suits best. Its profile reads equally for men and women.

It opens with bergamot, milk and tropical fruits, the milk softening the fruity freshness into something creamy. The heart brings cactus, green notes, cannabis and jasmine. The base settles into vetiver, musk, powdery notes and metallic notes, and the accords include a synthetic edge. Zoologist Cow and Agua de Baleares Fig Leaf have a close profile.
