What does Walking in Porta Venezia smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate to good. Most voters pick spring and autumn, and wear is spread across leisure, evening and daily use. It reads slightly more masculine than feminine, but a sizeable share of voters call it feminine, so it sits between the two.

It opens with star anise, lemon, Belanis® and black pepper, fresh and lightly spicy. In the heart, Madagascan geranium, vermouth, artemisia and violet leaf add a green tone. The base rests on patchouli, cedarwood and fir balsam absolute, with Bourbon vanilla absolute softening it with a touch of sweetness.
