Worth Avenue
Worth Avenue by Ellis Brooklyn is an unisex eau de parfum in the designer price tier. It opens with cardamom, pink pepper and lemon, moves into lavender, suede, angelica and geranium and dries down to cedarwood, ambroxan and copaiba balsam. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
Heart
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Suede Soft, powdery leather. Much gentler than the real thing.
- Angelica Musky, herbal root. Earthy and a bit strange.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Copaiba Balsam A soft, woody Amazonian resin. Smooth, slightly peppery and long-lasting.
