What does 1805 (Cologne) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays light and close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, with daily, business and leisure wear leading the occasions. It reads mostly masculine and classic.

Lemon, white honeydew melon and bergamot open it with a fruity, citrus freshness. In the heart, jasmine, rose and lily add a soft floral touch, while spices and moss pull it towards green and lightly spicy. Amberwood and musk leave a soft, woody base. Floris JF and Creed Erolfa have a close profile.
