What does Halcyon smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, with longevity a little stronger. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, so this text does not point it toward a particular time of year.

Up top, pepper, grapefruit and basil give a fresh, green and spicy start. In the heart, magnolia adds a floral touch, pineapple a fruity one and clove a spicy warmth. The base of patchouli, vetiver and ambroxan leaves it woody and earthy, with powdery and animal tones staying in the background. Hermès Terre d'Hermès (Eau de Toilette) and Czech & Speake Citrus Paradisi have a close profile.
