What does Pot Pourri / Pot-Pourri smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Voters lean towards spring and autumn, with summer close behind, and it is worn mostly for leisure and daytime. Opinion on its character is split between masculine and feminine, and some also call it classic.

It smells fresh, green and spicy: citrus and laurel give a bright start, while clove and lavender warm the herbal heart. In the base, patchouli, Peru balsam and cedarwood settle it onto a woody, resinous, earthy ground. Anat Fritz Classical and Amouage Bracken Man have a close profile.
