What does Vol 870 YUL-CDG smell like?

It runs fresh, floral and green. Peach and apricot add a soft fruitiness, and bergamot supports the brightness. Spices, resins, woods and leathery notes ground this light frame in a woody depth, while musk smooths the edges.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without crowding the room. Most voters point to business wear, followed by daily and leisure use. Its unisex character suits men and women alike. Birkholz Grasse - Fleur de Provence and Teufelsküche Boom! have a close profile.
