What does Cruz del Sur smell like?

It opens bright and aquatic with mandarin orange and marine notes. Rose and eucalyptus in the heart add a floral, cool balance. The base of musk, patchouli, amber and vanilla sweetens it and settles it into an oriental, chypre footing, with a fruity touch alongside.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick summer, followed by fall and spring; it leans towards night out and evening wear, though leisure and daily use also get votes. It reads unisex. Late Night Venom by The Dua Brand and Cørbo Adriana have a close profile.
