What does Supernova smell like?

Its longevity and sillage sit between moderate and weak, so it stays quiet and close to the skin. Voters place it mostly in leisure and daily wear, with office use not far behind. Masculine and feminine votes are almost even; the scent sits between the two.

It opens with bergamot, lemon, grapefruit and mandarin orange, while green notes and rosemary add a herbal freshness. In the heart, cardamom, ginger and cognac bring a spicy warmth. At the base, oakmoss, cedarwood and musk settle it onto a soft, woody floor.
