What does 1986 smell like?

It opens with mandarin orange and green tea, a cool, green start. Cardamom in the heart adds a spicy edge, and orange blossom in the base leaves a soft floral finish. Aquatic and fruity touches are balanced by sweetness, with a slightly synthetic brightness.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most. It leans masculine, though a fair share of voters call it feminine. Tom Ford Neroli Portofino and Provence & Nature Fleur d'Oranger have a close profile.
