What does Solstice smell like?

It opens fresh, aquatic and lightly fruity, with marine notes and watermelon in front. In the heart, lily of the valley, jasmine and violet add a soft floral layer while the sweetness stays in the background. Ambermor and Sinfonide® close it on a clean, synthetic base.

Most voters pick spring and summer. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters lean towards feminine, yet masculine and modern votes are far from rare, so it sits comfortably on either gender.
