What does Primal Waters - TDM: Torroella de Montgrí smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Voters lean towards spring, fall and summer in almost equal measure, with winter well behind. It suits leisure, work and everyday wear. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine.

The accords are fresh, green and spicy. Thyme, rosemary and lavender give a clean herbal freshness, while cedarwood and Mediterranean cypress build a woody frame. Fir balsam and labdanum absolute add a resinous, earthy warmth, and eucalyptus absolute cools that density.
