The top holds geranium, bergamot, mandarin orange and lavender, so citrus and green lead the way. In the heart, jasmine, violet, cinnamon and coriander add a spicy, floral middle. The base of amberwood, ambroxan, musk and fir balsam gives a woody, fougère-style finish.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it suits business, leisure and daily wear. It reads mostly masculine, with a modern side. The Dua Brand Legendary Knight and Parfums de Marly Percival have a close profile.
