Underlined notes have a page in the Note Atlas.

A men’s fragrance from Azzaro, launched in 2005 and composed by Françoise Caron. A fresh citrus-and-apple opening moves into a spicy heart (coriander, cardamom, caraway) and a dry woody base.

Osmoz also lists a synthetic amber molecule in the base; we consider the specific name in its listing uncertain, so we do not give it.
