La Primavera
La Primavera by Argos is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with bergamot, lemon and green leaves, moves into rose and heliotrope and dries down to musk, vanilla and vetiver. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Green Leaves Crushed stems and fresh leaves. Snappy, sharp and outdoorsy.
Heart
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Heliotrope Almond, vanilla and powder. Smells like marzipan and old-fashioned makeup.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
