Areia Salgada

Comporta · 2017

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Comporta Areia Salgada is a fresh, citrusy unisex scent that leans towards spring and summer and sits easily in everyday wear. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn further behind and winter barely chosen. Daytime, leisure and business settings come up most. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Votes for feminine and masculine are almost level, so it reads as truly unisex. It opens with bergamot, apple, thyme, cypress and elemi resin, giving a fresh, fruity and lightly spicy start. In the heart, lily of the valley, jasmine and cedar add a soft floral and woody touch. The base of patchouli, leather and amber sweetens it and dries it down with an earthy depth.

In the heart, lily of the valley and orris root add a soft, powdery floral touch. The base of musky notes and sandalwood settles it onto a woody, lightly sweet ground. Mosquito Intense and Aqua Universalis have a close profile.
