What does Moonrise on the Horizon Intense smell like?

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though with few votes these figures are only a tendency. Value for money is rated high. It is classed as a men's fragrance; with no season or occasion votes, nothing more can be said on when it suits best.

The top opens with ginger, red berries and white rum, so spice and fruity sweetness arrive together. In the heart, jasmine, mango wood and plum blossom soften that sweetness. The base of white musk, cypriol, Woodleather® and amber leaves a warm, woody trail. Montblanc Homme Exceptionnel and Parfums de Marly Layton have a close profile.
