What does Galatea smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, so it lingers on skin and makes its presence known. Voters rate its value for money very highly. It is classed as a men's fragrance.

It opens with maté, cypress, thyme, green and fruity notes. Jasmine, rose and iris give the heart a floral softness. The base of vetiver, leather, Virginia cedar, vanilla and amber leaves a spicy, smoky warmth. Parfums de Marly Godolphin and Maison Alhambra Athena have a close profile.
