What does Cologne (2016) smell like?

Citrus leads: bergamot, lemon and bitter orange carry the freshness. Galbanum and petitgrain water absolute add a green edge, while orange blossom and honeysuckle bring the floral side forward. Juniper berry, angelica root and clary sage give this clean picture a light spicy, fruity tone.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily wear, leisure and office use come first. Votes for masculine and feminine character sit fairly close, so it reads open to both. Penhaligon's Luna and Creed Neroli Sauvage have a close profile.
