What does Sergio Tacchini (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with rosemary, lime, bergamot and clove: bright citrus with a light spicy edge. In the heart, lemon leaf, lavender and lily of the valley add a floral, green softness. Vetiver, patchouli and sandalwood then settle it onto a woody, powdery base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and business are the most named occasions. Close to half see it as masculine, with a good share calling it classic. Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche pour Homme and Caron Le 3ᵉ Homme have a close profile.
