What does Sage Spell smell like?
It opens with pink grapefruit, pink pepper and peppermint, a cool, peppery start. In the heart, star anise, sage and absinth add a herbal edge. Patchouli, labdanum and green tea soften the base and give it an earthy footing. The accords read fresh, citrus and aquatic, with fruity and spicy touches in the background.
Longevity and projection are moderate. It suits any gender, and its airy character leans towards warm weather. Perris Portofino Blu Profondo and Davidoff Cool Water Into the Ocean have a close profile.
