PowderyWhat does Gunpowder Cologne smell like?
Bergamot and lavender give it a citrusy, aromatic freshness, while green tea keeps it light and green. Blond woods and musk leave a soft, powdery, creamy woodiness underneath, with sweetness and spice staying in the background.
Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, work and daily wear lead the occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are close. Banana Republic 90 Pure White and Carven Paris Séville have a similar profile.
