What does La Carretera smell like?

The opening of apple, bergamot, pineapple and blackcurrant is bright, sweet and citrusy. In the heart, jasmine and rose add a soft floral note, while patchouli and fir bring a green, woody tone. The base of vanilla, ambergris and musk sweetens and rounds it off; the overall impression is fresh, fruity and slightly synthetic.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though few votes back this up. Voters lean towards daytime, leisure and office wear, with evening and night-out use less common. Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man and LPDO Cretus have a close profile.
