What does Steel smell like?

It opens bright with bergamot, lime and aldehydes. The heart adds a floral, lightly spicy greenness through cardamom, lily of the valley, vermouth and violet leaf. The base settles on vetiver, moss, patchouli and cedarwood for a woody footing.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, though the small number of votes makes these ratings tentative. Most voters pick summer and spring, with autumn close behind. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and reads as masculine.
