What does Royal Vintage smell like?

It opens with the spicy brightness of pink pepper, and cypress brings a green, woody note to the heart. It dries down on patchouli and musk, leaving an earthy, slightly smoky and leathery trace. A fruity softness balances the dryness.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick autumn and spring, summer is close behind, and winter trails. Occasions are spread evenly across business, leisure, night out and evening. Most voters find it masculine and classic. Korloff Écorce d'Argent and Al Rehab Avenue (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
