What does Awaken smell like?

Citrus and coriander give a fresh, lightly spicy start. In the heart, cypress, fir needle and clary sage bring out the green and aquatic sides; in the base, patchouli, cedarwood and frankincense settle the scent onto an earthy, woody footing. A fruity, sweet undertone softens the dry wood.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. Its fresh, green build leans towards warmer weather and everyday wear. Tumi Awaken Distilled and Nishane Hacivat have a close profile.
