Armaf Hunter Intense

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, sharp and peppery, more like cracked pepper than baking spice.

It opens on bergamot, pomelo and mandarin orange, moves through lavender, geranium and ylang ylang, and settles on black pepper and cardamom.

• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does
• mandarin orange: sweet, soft citrus. Gentler and less biting than lemon

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
