What does Virtus smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes behind both is small. Most voters place it in daily and leisure wear, with evening and business use close behind. It reads equally well on men and women.
The top opens with ginger, bergamot zest and cardamom, fresh and lightly spicy. In the heart, orange blossom absolute, neroli and lily of the valley add a floral, slightly powdery softness. The base of ambroxan, Clearwood™ and musk leaves a woody, sweet trail. Its profile is close to Clive Christian No. 1 for Men and Rasasi Tasmeem Men.
