What does Air smell like?
Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. It is classed as a men's fragrance. The vote counts are small, so these ratings are only a rough guide.
Citrus and petitgrain give it a bright start, while the aquatic and green accords carry that freshness through. Angelica and artemisia add a herbal, slightly bitter depth; patchouli and turmeric leaf lay down a woody, earthy, spicy base. Fruity and creamy touches soften the edges, and a clean, synthetic feel comes through. Angel Schlesser Profound Orange Wood and Keiko Mecheri Mulholland have a close profile.
