What does Serin smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so that reading is tentative. It has no strong lean towards a particular season or setting, and it reads as neither distinctly masculine nor feminine.

Mint, sage and citrus notes bring the freshness, while rose and heliotrope add a floral sweetness. Smoke, gaiac wood, sandalwood and opoponax anchor it in a woody, spicy, resinous base. Oriza L. Legrand Rêve d'Ossian and Zara Sacred Green Forest have a close profile.
