What does Bustling Barcelona smell like?

Ginger and citron join the citrus at the top. In the heart, aquatic notes, rosemary, sage and neroli keep it fresh while pulling it towards floral and spicy ground. The base of amber, black tea, gaiac wood and frankincense settles into a woody, lightly resinous finish.

Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, business and leisure lead the occasions. Voters mostly call it masculine and modern, though it wears easily as a unisex scent. Maison Alhambra Immortel / Immortal and Riiffs Celesto Turquoise have a close profile.
