What does L.12.12 Silver Grey smell like?

It opens with mandarin orange and frankincense, and in the heart geranium and lavender build a floral, green middle. Ambrox and vetiver round it off in the base with a synthetic cleanness, while fruity and sweet tones stay in the background and a spicy trace runs alongside.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters place it mostly in leisure and business settings, then daily wear and sport; a night out gets fewer votes. Cristiano Ronaldo Origins and Karl Lagerfeld Bois de Vétiver have a close profile.
