What does Apricot in Cognac smell like?

Apricot, tangerine and orange make up the fruity side, while cognac adds a warm, lightly spicy depth. Orange blossom softens the fruit. Sandalwood and benzoin give it a woody, resinous, creamy base, and juniper berry and roasted sesame round out the gourmand feel.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, so it stays on skin for a long time and makes itself noticed. Its sweet, warm character suits cooler days best. As a unisex scent it does not lean towards either gender. M. Micallef Secrets of Love - Passion and Molton Brown Muddled Plum have a close profile.
