What does Navy Black smell like?
It opens with grapefruit, bergamot and nectarine, while aquatic and green accords keep it cool and add a fruity sweetness. Coffee and sage move in toward the heart, and vetiver, patchouli and amber settle into a woody, lightly spicy base.
Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily wear, business and leisure are the most mentioned occasions. Calvin Klein Escape for Men and Lacoste Essential Sport have a close profile.
