What does B.B. smell like?

It opens with Calabrian bergamot, Sicilian bitter orange and Italian lemon, with Bulgarian rose softening the citrus. In the heart, white lotus and ylang-ylang bring a floral note, while pink pepper, Egyptian cumin and lavender add a spicy, slightly aromatic contrast. The base rests on myrrh, birch wood and Australian sandalwood, closed by musk and oakmoss.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It suits anyone, man or woman, who wants a fresh, clean scent. Its profile is close to Acqua di Giò pour Homme and CK One Essence.
