Mon Guerlain Sparkling Bouquet

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, the general smell of flowers, without leaning sharp or sweet.

It opens on pear, bergamot and mandarin orange, moves through lavender, peony and jasmine sambac, and settles on tahitian vanilla, white musk and sandalwood.

• pear: light watery sweetness with a green crispness
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

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