What does Live in Colours smell like?

It opens bright and lightly sweet, with grapefruit, lemon and red fruits. Ginger and red pepper bring spice through the heart, and hinoki cypress, musk and amber settle into a soft, woody base.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, mainly for daily wear, leisure and the office. Votes for masculine and feminine are nearly even, so it sits comfortably on either side. Atkinsons 44 Gerrard Street and Narcotica Limonata have a close profile.
