Mandorla di Sicilia

8.0

Marcoccia · 2009

Citrus · Floral · Fruity

Marcoccia Mandorla di Sicilia opens with mandarin orange and almond and reads as a sweet, powdery, creamy unisex scent.

Vetiver lays a woody base, while tonka bean and vanilla leave a soft, powdery sweetness. Spicy and synthetic touches also show among its accords.
