Othoca

Acqua di Sardegna · 2017

Fresh · Floral · Aquatic

Acqua di Sardegna Othoca is a unisex scent that pairs a fresh, aquatic character with green, spicy and woody touches, and it suits spring and autumn days. Longevity and sillage both rate as good, though only a small number of votes stand behind those ratings. Most voters pick spring and autumn, with summer not far behind. Leisure, nights out and evenings are the most common occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it doesn't lean firmly either way. Marjoram, bergamot and red thyme open with a herbal, spicy freshness. The heart holds juniper, algae, costus and lavender; the algae brings the watery feel, while lavender and costus add a powdery softness. In the base, vetiver, patchouli, cedarwood and amber settle the scent into a warm, woody finish.
