What does Via Manzoni 20 smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter and suggest evenings and nights out; spring comes second, while summer trails far behind. It reads slightly more masculine than feminine, though both get votes, which puts it somewhere in between.

The top notes are sour cherry, coriander and brandy: a fruity, sweet, lightly spiced start. In the heart, juniper, rosemary and davana add a green, aromatic edge to that sweetness, and the base of sandalwood, myrrh and vetiver brings a warm, woody, resinous finish. Nobile 1942 Malvs and Amouage Jubilation XXV Man have a close profile.
