What does 07 Cologne Grand Siècle smell like?

It opens with the bright snap of green mandarin orange. In the heart, ylang-ylang, mastic and boxwood add a green, lightly spicy texture around the citrus. Wheat and vetiver dry down underneath, so the fruity freshness settles onto a woody base.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily, leisure and business wear lead the occasions. It sits between masculine and feminine. Parfums de Marly Perseus and Parfumerie Particulière Blue Mandarine have a close profile.
