What does Vendetta smell like?
The top pairs the brightness of orange and lemon with the spice of saffron and clove, while iron adds a sharper edge. In the heart, lavender, orange blossom and clary sage soften the transition. The base of vetiver, amber, oud and oakmoss settles the scent onto a sweet, woody ground.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter. It gets the most votes for night out and evening, though business and daily wear are close behind. Voters mostly describe its character as masculine and modern.
