What does Date smell like?

It opens with bergamot and lemon, a bright citrus start. Pink pepper and gaiac wood form a spicy, woody middle. In the base, vanilla, musk and amber sweeten the scent and give it a creamy warmth. Fruity and synthetic tones also run through the accords.

Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Few people have rated it, so these impressions are tentative. It reads as a masculine fragrance. M96D Sport and Autobiography Citron Vanille have a close profile.
