What does The Architect of Dreams smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters suggest spring and summer; it leans towards leisure, work and daily wear, and also suits evenings. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though a fair share see it as masculine.
It opens with grapefruit and orange, bright and citrusy. In the heart, jasmine, ginger and cotton come forward, with spicy notes adding a dry edge to the floral layer. The base of gaiac wood, benzoin, vanilla and musk settles into a sweet, resinous, woody finish.
