It opens on neroli and bergamot, moves through orange blossom and bulgarian rose, and settles on marshmallow, vanilla and musk.

• neroli: the bright, just-squeezed side of orange blossom: green, clean and faintly bitter
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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