What does Kingston Ferry smell like?

Firewood, driftwood and cedar leaf build the woody, resinous and smoky side. Seagrass carries the aquatic freshness, while heather and rhododendron bring a floral greenness; arbutus, blossoms and wild flowers round out the natural picture. The notes read as one whole.

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear. It reads more masculine than feminine to most voters, though feminine votes are far from rare. Olympic Rainforest and Madrona have a close profile.
