What does Philosia smell like?

The top is mandarin orange, orange and bergamot, a bright and clean citrus start. In the heart, fir balsam, star anise, eucalyptus and pine bring green, spicy and resinous tones. The base rests on gaiac wood, patchouli, musk and cedarwood, with the musk adding a soft, creamy finish.

Longevity and sillage both sit at a moderate level. These ratings rest on few votes, but they point to a calm, unshowy scent. It reads comfortably on both men and women. Carthusia A'mmare and Lostmarc'h Atao have a close profile.
