What does Vibrant Brown smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer well back. It suits evenings, nights out and leisure time. It reads masculine, though some also call it modern.

It opens with coriander, bergamot, pepper and pear, a fresh, lightly fruity, spicy start. In the heart, osmanthus and iris add a soft, powdery floral note. Vetiver, leather, cashmere wood and sandalwood then settle it into a woody, leathery base. Zara Night pour Homme III and Zara Extreme 6.0 have a close profile.
