What does Mountain Pepper smell like?

Orange, bergamot and apple lead the top, with litsea cubeba and plum rounding out the fresh opening. The heart brings lavender, rosemary, coriander and pepper, while jasmine and rose soften the spicy greenery. Musk, amber, woods and moss form the base. The overall impression is fresh, lightly sweet and woody.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, and few choose winter. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and most voters find it masculine. Parfums de Marly Percival and Truefitt & Hill Sandalwood have a close profile.
