What does Scent Bar 500 smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate: it neither dominates a room nor disappears quickly. Voters lean towards daily wear, leisure and the office, with some choosing it for sport too. As a unisex scent, it reads neither distinctly masculine nor feminine.

Overall the scent feels fresh and green. Green tea and artemisia carry the cool side, blackcurrant adds a fruity sweetness, and honeysuckle softens it with a floral touch. Opoponax leaves a faint spicy warmth in the background. Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune and Molinard Thé Basilic have a close profile.
