What does The First Dandelion smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin as a calm, quiet scent. Few people have rated these two points, so they are only a rough guide. Being unisex, it sits equally well on men and women.

The notes are soil, dandelion leaf and dandelion, and they read as a single whole. The leafy green side leads, the floral sweetness is light and the spicy touch is faint. The soil keeps it in the mood of a damp meadow. Gaglewski Grasse En Chemin and Demeter Fragrance Library Dandelion (Cologne) have a close profile.
