Mostly the general smell of flowers, without leaning sharp or sweet. Underneath that, sweet and creamy, like vanilla pod or custard.

It opens on almond blossom, clementine and cyclamen, moves through jasmine, peony and amaryllis, and settles on vanilla, amber and benzoin.

• cyclamen: a fresh, watery green floral. The real flower has almost no scent, so this is a perfumer's construction
• jasmine: a rich white flower, heady and full. Up close it turns slightly animal, which some people love and others find too much

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
