What does Water | Cedar | Lime smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. It reads masculine, though it also feels modern.

It opens with a bright citrus lift of mandarin orange, lime and orange. In the heart, cedarwood, pepper and vetiver add a green, spicy, woody turn. Gaiac wood, gurjum balsam and nutmeg dry it down at the base. Korres Kyma and Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Yuzu have a close profile.
