Emporio Armani

Mostly soft and dusty, somewhere between face powder and clean laundry. Underneath that, cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers.

It opens on yuzu, sage and cardamom, moves through nutmeg, rose and orris root, and settles on white musk, sandalwood and vetiver.

• sage: dry silvery herb, cooling with a bitter edge
• cardamom: cool green spice with an aromatic, almost soapy lift

It lasts an average amount of time 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.
