The smell is amazing, great citrusy scent with a noticiable vetiver, it has some other notes that makes it more complex but green citrus with vetiver is what you can expect to smell. The drydown is basically the same, this fragrance is pretty much linear, but unfortunately the only down is the performance. This would last 3 hours MAX, first hour decent projection, 2nd maybe someone passing by will notice it but the last hour will be for sure a skin scent. So i would highly recommend have a small decant with yourself and apply a couple extra sprays every couple hours to keep smelling AWESOME for all day long.
