What does Cranberry smell like?

It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and pink grapefruit alongside cranberry. In the heart, red currant, honeysuckle and ginger flower add a soft floral-fruity note, while ozone keeps the air cool. Vetiver, woods and musk form a simple woody base.

Voters find both longevity and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. It leans somewhat feminine. Roberto Cavalli Paradiso and Parfums d'Elmar Mahina have a close profile.
