What does Citrus - Wood / Citrus & Wood smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters recommend autumn and spring, and fewer pick summer or winter. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and reads as masculine and classic.

It opens with a citrus, green and spicy character: Elemi resin, bergamot and lime come first. In the heart, oakmoss, black pepper and birch push the scent towards earthy and green. The base of cedar, sandalwood, vetiver and ambergris sets a woody foundation. Creed Original Vetiver and Cartier Déclaration Essence have a close profile.
