What does Telegrama smell like?

Most voters pick spring and autumn, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with a place at the office too. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Feminine and masculine votes are almost even, so it reads as a true unisex.

The scent runs fresh, floral and powdery in a fougère vein. Linen and talcum build a clean, soft base, while lavender absolute and black pepper add a spicy edge. Amyris and teak give it a woody frame, and vanilla softens the sweetness a little.
