Parfums De Marly Galloway

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, soft skin-like warmth, more the smell of clean skin than a scent of its own.

It opens on citruses and pepper, moves through orange blossom and iris, and settles on musk and amber.

• citruses: a general citrus impression rather than any one fruit
• pepper: dry and warming, like freshly cracked black pepper

It lasts well 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.
