What does Bahiana smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Though unisex, more voters read it as feminine than masculine.

Citrus leads, with lemon and orange in the top. The heart of rosewood, elemi resin, leaf green and gaiac wood adds a green, woody, lightly spicy turn. Coconut, amber and musk in the base close it on a fruity sweetness.
