Grapefruit sets it going, bitter and a little pithy, with lemon adding sourness and mandarin orange a softer, sweeter roundness, and bergamot carries that trio into the body of the scent. The middle is clean and aromatic in the Spanish manner, lavender and rosemary side by side, with coriander lending a dry peppery edge that stops the herbs becoming sleepy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe last part is dry and pale. Cedarwood and sandalwood give it a smooth wood, patchouli adds earth beneath them, vetiver a bitter rooty streak, and cumin a thread of warmth that sits very close to the skin. The journey is from bright to quiet, and it happens quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an eau de cologne this is a light concentration, so the first fifteen minutes are the loudest part and what remains afterwards is a soft clean trail for an hour or two. Reapplying is expected rather than a sign of failure, and at 150ml there is no reason to be careful with it. It suits mornings, heat, offices and the hour after a shave, and it reads unisex without even trying. If you want something that smells like being clean rather than like wearing perfume, this is the category and this is a good example of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe firm was started in 1899 by three young men from Leon, newly settled in Madrid and employed in aromas, who bought themselves a shop at Calle Sevilla 2. Their concentrated cologne, made by hand in its cellar from 1912, is the product everything else in the catalogue descends from, and the business belongs to the family's fourth generation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alvarez Gómez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53297361518919,"sku":"ENG170446","price":33.7,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/eng170446.jpg?v=1770519564","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/alvarez-gomez-agua-fresca-de-azahar-eau-de-cologne-150ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
