What does The Courtyards of Castello Sforzesco smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though only a small number of votes stand behind that. Voters place it mostly in the evening and on nights out, then in leisure and business settings, which suits its unisex character.

It opens with bergamot, frankincense and saffron, then moves into geranium, Moroccan rose absolute and honey, with pink pepper adding spice. The base of woody notes, labdanum and benzoin leaves a sweet, resinous, slightly smoky warmth. Floral and sweet accords lead.
