What does Esperidi Water smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, and few choose winter. It leans towards leisure, work and everyday wear, and sits in the background for evenings and nights out. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters read it as more masculine, though a fair number call it feminine.

It opens with black pepper, lemon, orange and rosemary, so spice and citrus come first. The heart holds vetiver, white blossoms and cedarwood, giving a green, woody feel. White musk and amber soften the base and leave a creamy trail.
