What does Geranium & Verbena smell like?

Vervain and basil give it a green, lightly spicy freshness. Geranium carries the floral side, while coumarin and vetiver soften it and settle it on an even base. Fresh and citrus accords lead from start to finish.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin as a quiet scent. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together. Hermès Eau de Basilic Pourpre and Santa Maria Novella Verbena have a similar profile.
