LeatheryWhat does Bold as Love smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of ratings is small, so those scores are only a rough guide. It reads comfortably on both men and women.
The top of apple, pineapple, ginger and mandarin orange is fruity and bright. In the heart, lavender, juniper berry and geranium add a green, spicy edge. It dries down on vetiver, patchouli and smoked leather, settling into a woody, leathery dryness. Rituals Oriental Essence - Nuit d'Azar and Creed Aventus Cologne have a close profile.
