What does Upper Ten (2015) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters recommend fall and winter, with spring not far behind and summer chosen by few. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine.

The top opens with Italian bergamot, juniper berry, rose and saffron. The heart brings orange blossom, cinnamon, cardamom, geranium and peach, adding a sweet, fruity, spicy warmth. The base settles on leather, amber, sandalwood, cedar and patchouli, a woody, resinous ground.
