SpicyWhat does Aquilo smell like?
It opens with a bright citrus burst of mandarin orange, orange and petitgrain. In the heart, cotton flower, lavender and seagrass turn that freshness floral and watery. The base of patchouli, Virginia cedar wood and amber adds a woody, faintly spicy foundation, with powdery and leathery touches among the accords.
Zara 10.0 and Cristiano Ronaldo Origins have a close profile.
