Classique Collector Edition 2018 for women

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, sugary and rounded, closer to dessert than to fruit.

It opens on star anise, orange blossom and mandarin orange, moves through plum, ginger and orchid, and settles on musk, vanilla and amber.

• orange blossom: the flower of the orange tree rather than the fruit: sweet, honeyed and a little green
• mandarin orange: sweet, soft citrus. Gentler and less biting than lemon

It lasts an average amount of time and carries into a room.

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