What does HoS N.004 smell like?

It opens on citrus and lavender, while jasmine and orange blossom give the heart a soft, slightly sweet floral side. Oakmoss and patchouli lay a green, earthy base underneath. Beneath the fresh, fruity tones there is a faint spicy, oriental warmth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It is positioned as a masculine fragrance. Frapin The Orchid Man and Maison Alhambra Mindset have a close profile.
