What does Solo Mercurio smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without pushing itself on a room. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer not far behind. It suits daily wear, the office and leisure time, and most voters read it as masculine and modern.

Mandarin orange, fig leaf and lavender give the scent its fresh, green side, while orange blossom and geranium add a floral layer. Cardamom and liquorice bring spice and sweetness, and honey rounds it off. Tobacco, amber and musk add a warm, woody, resinous feel. Sean John 3AM and Afnan Perfumes 9am have a close profile.
