What does Cretus smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer for it, with autumn a close third; winter comes well behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, though it is described as unisex.
It opens with pineapple, blackcurrant, bergamot and apple, giving a fresh, juicy fruit feel. In the heart, birch, juniper berry, patchouli and jasmine turn it greener and spicier. The base of musk, oakmoss, vanilla and ambergris settles it onto a woody footing with a soft sweetness. Maison Alhambra Avant and Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man have a close profile.
