With no season or occasion votes, it can't be tied to a particular time of year, but its fresh, citrusy build suits everyday wear. Citrus and fresh notes lead at the start, supported by green and fruity accords. Spicy notes take over in the heart, and musky and woody notes settle in at the base. A synthetic edge runs through the accords. Le Blanc Vetiver and Al Halal Rahma have a close profile.
