What does Bangkok smell like?

It opens with cardamom, bergamot, caraway and clove, a fresh but spicy start. In the heart, lavender, black pepper and cedarwood come forward. In the base, vetiver and tonka bean dry the scent down and sweeten it slightly. Fresh, green and spicy accords weigh most; the powdery and synthetic tones stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters pick it most for daily wear and leisure, with evening and business use close behind. Being unisex, it reads comfortably on both men and women. Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit de L'Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Korres Vetiver Root have a close profile.
