What does Classic 5.0 smell like?

Its notes are leather, patchouli, apple, geranium and blackcurrant. Apple and blackcurrant carry the fruity freshness, geranium adds a floral edge, and leather with patchouli brings a woody, spicy depth. The sweetness stays present, and the whole has a distinctly synthetic feel.

Voters find both longevity and sillage weak, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough picture. It suits someone who wants a light, uncomplicated scent. Zara Extreme 5.0 and Jaguar Classic Red have a close profile.
