What does Matrix smell like?

The top is Calabrian neroli, Sicilian bergamot and green notes. Pink pepper, cardamom and nutmeg bring spice to the heart, with jasmine softening it. The base turns woody and earthy with Indian patchouli, cedar and Haitian vetiver.

Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters read it as masculine, though it works as a unisex scent. Xerjoff Nio and The Dua Brand Matrix Recoded Edition have a close profile.
