What does Strand smell like?

Strand's longevity and sillage are both rated weak, so expect a light scent that stays close to the skin. Voters place it mostly in leisure, business and daily wear, with sport and evening use well behind.

It opens with lemon, laurel and orange, a bright citrus with a green edge. At the heart, nutmeg adds spice while lavender brings a light floral, aromatic touch. Woods settle underneath as a dry base. The overall impression is fresh, green and clean, with citrus softened by spice. Demeter Naturals - Lavender and Boadicea the Victorious Grace have a close profile.
