What does Approdo smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it suits daily wear, leisure and the office. More voters read it as masculine than feminine, though a fair share find it feminine.
The top is mandarin orange, violet leaf, basil and mineral notes, which gives a fresh, green, slightly fruity start. Magnolia, black pepper and white pepper add a floral, spicy middle. The base of cedarwood, maté, vetiver and patchouli turns it woody and earthy.
