What does #What Matters Is Inside - Italy smell like?

The bergamot's brightness is softened at first by white blossoms and aniseed. The heart brings pink pepper, Italian iris and ylang-ylang, where spice and floral touches blend together. In the base, woody notes, musk and amber remain, and the scent carries a green, sweet side as it settles into a synthetic, resinous feel.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it sits close rather than filling a room, though the number of votes is small and these ratings are tentative. Being unisex, it suits both men and women. Veronique Gabai Eau de la Nuit and Navitus Parfums Navus have a close profile.
