What does 1770 smell like?

It opens with fig, citrus notes and black pepper: a fruity freshness with a light edge of spice. In the heart, cocoa bean, woody notes and floral notes settle that freshness onto a soft, creamy ground. The base is led by patchouli, moss, musk and vetiver, which give it an earthy, resinous feel.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, then winter and spring, with summer least favoured. Leisure, business and evening are named about equally. Most read it as masculine, with a classic side as well. Fragrances of Ireland Patrick and ānti Nashi Toro have a close profile.
