What does Galloway smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter gets the fewest votes. Daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions, with evening and night out further back. Voters mostly read its character as masculine and modern.

It opens with citrus notes and pepper, the pepper adding a dry spice to the citrus freshness. In the heart, iris and orange blossom bring a powdery, floral turn. The base of amber, musk and sandalwood leaves a soft, woody finish.
