What does Sign smell like?

Its longevity and projection are rated moderate, and most voters find both about average. There are no season or occasion votes to lean on, but it is presented as a men's scent. Jacques Fath Red Shoes and Lou de Pre Great in Black have a close profile.

It opens with a spicy start of pink pepper and cardamom. In the heart, orange blossom, apple, violet leaf absolute, geranium, grapefruit and lavender build a fresh, green, fruity feel. In the base, tonka bean, vanilla and cashmere wood sweeten the scent and settle it onto a woody ground.
