What does Missoni Wave smell like?

Most voters pick summer, then spring. It leans towards daily wear, leisure, sport and the office, and is chosen less for nights out and evenings. Longevity and sillage are rated good, and most voters read it as masculine and modern.

It opens with marine notes and Italian mandarin orange, giving an aquatic, citrus coolness. In the heart, clary sage, rosemary, Egyptian pelargonium and lavender add a herbal edge. The base of Haitian vetiver, vanilla orchid and patchouli sweetens it and turns it creamy. Rabanne Invictus (Eau de Toilette) and Rasasi Hawas Malibu have a close profile.
