What does Puro Lino (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays with you without filling the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Feminine votes edge ahead, but masculine ones are close behind, so it sits between the two.

It opens fresh, citrusy and green with vervain and bergamot. In the heart, geranium, Tunisian neroli and jasmine add a soft floral note, while aldehydes lend an airy brightness. Musk and woody notes in the base settle it onto a plain, powdery footing. Clean Ultimate and Van Cleef & Arpels Printemps have a close profile.
