What does Mandarina Duck smell like?

It opens with bergamot, yellow freesia and white pepper, bright and lightly spicy. In the heart, gardenia, honeysuckle and jasmine tea add a soft floral note. The base of cedarwood, ambrette seed and musk settles into a woody, creamy finish. Green and fruity touches and a light sweetness run alongside.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, and most voters pick spring and summer. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Voters mostly read it as feminine.
