What does Poseidon Blue smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the small number of votes makes that a rough guide. It is classed as a men's fragrance.

Citrus and mint give it a bright start. In the heart, nutmeg, ginger and geranium add a spicy, green edge. The base of vetiver, patchouli and frankincense turns it woody, earthy and slightly smoky. Histoires de Parfums 1828 and Carven Le Vétiver have a close profile.
