What does Secret Garden smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though it is classed as unisex.

It opens with currant and grapefruit, a bright, fruity freshness. Jasmine and rose bring a soft floral heart, and amber and cedar settle the scent onto a woody, lightly sweet base. Powdery and creamy shades smooth the whole. Le Galion Brumes and Dior Joy (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
