What does Absolute Sport smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, with sport, leisure and daily wear leading the occasions. Its longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it may need a refresh during the day. Many voters read it as masculine, and some call it modern.

It opens with mandarin orange, orange, marine notes and aldehydes, which keep it light and lively. The heart adds pepper, cedarwood and neroli, bringing a little spice and wood without covering the citrus. The base of vetiver, tonka bean, vanilla and white musk sweetens it and settles into a creamy warmth.
