What does Erba Pura Magica smell like?
It opens with a bright citrus layer of lemon and bergamot, softened by jasmine and fruity notes. In the heart, balsamic notes and orris root add a powdery, creamy feel. The base of musk, caramel, amber and cedarwood turns it sweeter and settles it on a warm footing.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter trails far behind. It leans towards nights out and leisure time. Votes for masculine and feminine are nearly even, so it sits comfortably on either.
