Scent Depot Score™

6.6/10

Good

Worth consideringA bright, watery-fruity opening (water lily, apple, mandarin, apricot) moves to a soft white-floral heart with a light dark-chocolate thread, settling into a powdery vanilla–amber–woody base. Community metrics point to moderate longevity (~6/10) and sillage (~6/10) for an EDT.

More Information

Key strengths
