PowderyWhat does Pontevecchio W (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with mandarin orange, bergamot and coriander, a green, citrus freshness with a spicy edge. The heart of iris, Bulgarian rose and Jasminum auriculatum builds the floral core, and a base of white musk, amberwood and Indian sandalwood settles it into a woody, sweet creaminess.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Most see it as feminine, with some calling it classic. Loewe 001 (Eau de Cologne) and Flora Danica Flower Muse have a close profile.
