What does FL 2018 / FL/18 smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter, then spring, with summer trailing far behind. Leisure and evening wear lead, and nights out follow closely. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads comfortably either way.

The top is saffron, cotton candy and elemi resin, spicy and sweet. In the heart, Brazilian maté, night-blooming jasmine and ambrette add a floral, slightly powdery softness. The base of leather, labdanum, Kashmiri musk and amberwood dries down resinous and woody.
