What does Emblem Absolu smell like?

Pear, cardamom and mandarin orange give a bright, fruity start. In the heart, pink pepper, lavender, honey and fruits add a spicy sweetness. The base of crystallised moss, patchouli and vetiver pulls the scent in an earthy, woody direction, while the synthetic accord keeps the overall feel slightly glossy.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though this rests on few votes. It reads masculine. Armaf Victory and Mugler B*Men have a close profile.
