What does The Color of Air smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so treat these ratings with caution. With no season or occasion votes, all that can be said is that its bright, lively build reads as easygoing.
It opens with kumquat, bitter orange and coriander, a citrus freshness with a slightly bitter edge. In the heart, Nepalese sichuan pepper, blackberry and Frostwood™ bring spice and fruit together. Patchouli and amber in the base deepen the sweetness a little and settle it into a fougère structure. Ineke Chemical Bonding and Massimo Dutti Cristal Zest have a close profile.
