What does Verveine Menthe / Mint Verbena smell like?

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close without disappearing. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it doesn't lean firmly either way.

It opens with grapefruit and green lemon for a bright citrus lift. The heart brings the two mints and verbena, green and slightly spicy. Musk and blond woods soften it at the base, leaving a lightly sweet, woody finish. Baldessarini (Eau de Cologne) and The House of Oud Live in Colours have a close profile.
