What does Colonia del Forte 1452 smell like?

It opens with tangerine, aldehydes and orange, the aldehydes giving the citrus a bright, slightly synthetic edge. In the heart, petitgrain and blossoms soften it, and green notes in the base leave a clean green finish. The overall impression is fresh, floral and lightly sweet.

Most voters recommend summer and spring, and it leans towards leisure, business and daily wear. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, which suits its unisex character. Zara Lisboa and Jacques Fath Curaçao Bay have a close profile.
