What does Detroit smell like?

It opens fresh and fruity with green apple and bergamot, and plum sweetens that start. In the heart, clove, cinnamon and olive add a spicy warmth. The base rests on vetiver, cedar and sandalwood, with vanilla leaving a soft, powdery sweetness. A slightly synthetic edge runs through the accords.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Voters place it mostly in daily wear, leisure and business, and also in evenings and nights out; sport comes last. Its fresh, sweet profile reads neither strongly masculine nor feminine, so it is easy to wear for anyone.
