Gladiator Extrait by Sora Dora is a sharp, citrus-driven scent built for warm weather. It opens fast: bitter orange, grapefruit, green apple, lemon, peppermint and bergamot firing together for a cold, minty brightness. Geranium and pineapple soften the middle, with white flowers and woody notes giving it some shape. The base holds steady with coumarin, patchouli leaf, Tahitian vetiver and Virginia cedar, dry and a touch green rather than sweet. Launched in 2021, it suits men and women who want something crisp rather than heavy, an easy fresh choice for daytime. Voters wear it in summer and spring, mostly during the day and at the office. Both longevity and sillage lean moderate in the vote, so it stays close rather than loud. A 10ml decant is enough to carry you through a working week of warm days.

The community verdict
Bitter Orange, Grapefruit and Green Apple start Gladiator Extrait brightly before Pineapple and Woody Notes lead towards Patchouli Leaf and Vetiver. Views split between moderate and long-lasting wear, and between moderate and strong projection. It fits summer days; spring and the office work too.
