What does Hermetic smell like?

It opens with a sharp, fresh burst of lemon and pepper. At the heart, peach, ylang-ylang and rose add a fruity, floral softness. In the base, caramel and tonka bean sweeten the scent, while gaiac wood and frankincense bring a woody, resinous depth. The overall impression is creamy and oriental.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and summer is rarely chosen. It leans towards leisure, night out and evening wear. Voters read it as somewhat more feminine, though it still reads as unisex. Khaltat Dragoste and Anfas Sa'Adah have a close profile.
