What does VG V smell like?

The top notes are blood orange and coriander, giving a bright, lightly spiced and fruity start. In the heart, white cedar, lavender and peach blossom build a woody, green core. The base of vanilla, moss, Brazilian rosewood and amber sweetens and softens the whole.

Its longevity is rated good. It is made for men, and its fresh build suits everyday wear. The rating is high, though based on few votes. Its profile is close to CinisLabs Aether and Gisada Ambassador for Men.
