What does Supernova smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Voters mostly read it as masculine, with modern in second place.

The notes work as a single whole rather than in layers. Citrus and apple give it a fresh, fruity side, while lavender, galbanum and artemisia pull that freshness towards green. Pink pepper and cypriol add spice, with vetiver, cedarwood and leather forming the woody base. Benzoin and vanilla soften it slightly. Roja Parfums Elysium pour Homme (Eau de Parfum) and The Dua Brand Supernova Rebirth have a close profile.
