What does Gardener's Glove smell like?

The top notes of galbanum, tomato leaf absolute, bergamot and Meyer lemon give a sharp, green opening. In the heart, rose absolute, jasmine, lily and apricot add a soft, floral and lightly fruity layer. The base of vetiver, patchouli, leather and castoreum brings an earthy, woody, animalic depth, while benzoin and amber add resinous warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it leans towards leisure, evening and nights out. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads comfortably either way. Rogue Flora & Fauna and Mallo OTO have a close profile.
