What does Lankaran Forest smell like?
It opens with the citrusy, green side of petitgrain; in the heart, black tea and lichen add a woodland, slightly smoky depth. The base stays dominated by sandalwood, leaves and woody notes, while resinous and spicy touches soften the fruity freshness.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. Voters split almost evenly between feminine and masculine, so it sits comfortably between the two. Mazzolari Mazzolari and Paglieri Genua have a close profile.
