What does Arsenic No. 17 smell like?
Green notes and fennel make up the core, while absinth adds a sharp, slightly earthy edge. Vanilla salt sweetens that cool greenness, and the aquatic and synthetic tones give it a clean, faintly cold look.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure and daily wear lead the occasions. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, sitting comfortably as a unisex fragrance.
