What does Aquae Nobilis smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with fewer choosing winter. It leans towards office, leisure and daily wear, and fewer choose it for evenings or nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, while some find it feminine or classic.

Oakmoss, geranium, absinth and vetiver come together as one whole rather than in layers. The fresh, green side is lifted by citrus, with a spicy edge and a creamy softness in between, and a woody, earthy base underneath. Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche pour Homme and Dries Van Noten Mystic Moss have a close profile.
