What does Santa Subita smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. More voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it masculine.
It opens with the bright citrus of orange, lemon and bergamot. In the heart, sandalwood, cedar and patchouli set an earthy, woody base. The base of tree moss, vanilla, musk and benzoin sweetens it and settles into a powdery, faintly smoky warmth.
