What does Arboretum smell like?

Coriander opens the scent, pine sits in the heart and oakmoss anchors the base. Fresh and green accords dominate, while spicy, woody and earthy touches round out the fougère structure. The resinous coolness of pine dries down against the damp, ground-hugging feel of oakmoss.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it lingers around you without filling the room. Most voters pick fall, spring and summer, with few choosing winter. Half of those who rate its character call it masculine, followed by classic, with some finding it modern. Stirling Soap Scots Pine and Arket Oakmoss have a close profile.
