What does JV x NJ - John Varvatos x Nick Jonas (blue) smell like?

It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and kaffir lime leaf for a bright citrus layer, with pink pepper adding a light spice. Lavender, rosemary and mint in the heart bring an aromatic, green feel, and sandalwood, Ambrox and Clearwood™ settle it onto a woody, slightly powdery base.

Longevity and sillage are moderate: it neither fades quickly nor fills a room. Its clean, fresh profile suits everyday wear, and it reads clearly masculine. Parfums de Marly Percival and Azzaro Sport have a close profile.
