Valentino Voce Viva

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, smells like food: caramel, chocolate, vanilla, bakery.

It opens on mandarin orange, bergamot and ginger, moves through orange blossom and gardenia, and settles on vanilla, tonka bean and musk.

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

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.
