What does Black Money smell like?

It opens with Italian lemon and Persian lavender, and the green and fruity touches keep the first impression bright and lively. Orange blossom adds a soft floral note in the heart, while cedarwood and Indian patchouli settle into a woody, earthy base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is still small, so these ratings are tentative. Its fresh, citrusy build suits everyday wear.
