In plain words

The main accords of Mandragore are fresh spicy and aromatic. It opens with Bergamot and Pepper, reveals Mint and Star Anise at its heart, and dries down to Boxwood and Labdanum. It lasts a moderate time and projects moderately; people reach for it in spring and summer, mostly by day.
