What does WhatsApp smell like?
The top holds citrus notes, rose and floral notes; the heart brings ginger, spicy notes and more floral notes. Patchouli and musk anchor the base. A fresh, green start softens over time into a spicy, woody warmth, with a sweet, fruity side staying in the background.
Its longevity and sillage are both rated very strong by voters. Most votes point to business, sport and nights out, and it also suits daily wear. Its profile is close to Bijan Bijan Men (Eau de Toilette) and Lattafa Musk Salama.
