Lavanda Nobile

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it leaves a close, steady trail. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with winter trailing behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. It leans masculine in character, though a fair share of voters read it as feminine.

It opens with Scottish lavender lifted by bergamot, lemon and cardamom. The heart holds lavender absolute, Provençal lavender, marine notes and gaiac wood. In the base, tonka bean, amber and oakmoss soften it into a powdery warmth.
