The Merchant Of Venice Moscado is a fresh, citrusy floral where sweetness is softened by a powdery, creamy side, and it works as a unisex scent.

What does Moscado smell like?

It opens with bergamot, pink pepper, cardamom and green mandarin, a bright mix of spice and citrus. Bulgarian rose, musk and frankincense form the heart, and myrrh with tonka bean settles into a sweet, creamy base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with winter trailing behind, and the occasions split fairly evenly between daily wear, leisure and the office. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair share call it masculine. Sylvaine Delacourte Lilylang and Élisire Poudre Désir have a close profile.
