What does Frost smell like?
Citrus leads: petitgrain, green mandarin orange, Meyer lemon and bergamot give it a bright, green start. In the heart, elderflower, geranium and honeysuckle add a soft floral touch. It settles onto a woody ground of vetiver and cedar, with clove, vanilla, labdanum and smoke making it spicy, resinous and lightly smoky.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good by those who voted. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, and it is chosen most for leisure and nights out. Masculine and feminine votes are equal, so it sits comfortably between the two. Roja Parfums Reckless pour Homme and Liquides Imaginaires Sancti have a close profile.
