PowderyWhat does Moon River smell like?
It opens with neroli and orange, giving a bright citrus feel. In the heart, geranium and pepper add a floral note with a spicy edge, while the fruity sweetness stays in the background. It dries down onto maté and cedar, settling into a powdery, woody base.
Longevity and sillage are both moderate, though these ratings rest on only a few votes. It suits men and women alike and leans towards easy everyday wear. Its profile is close to Prada L'Homme and Dior Pure Poison.
