What does Love Osmanthus smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, and it is mostly worn for leisure, daily use and the office. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters lean towards calling it feminine, though a fair number find it masculine.

The notes read as one whole rather than in layers: the bright freshness of the lemon is softened by the floral, fruity, sweet side of the osmanthus, while the cedar adds a woody frame underneath. The fresh, citrus character stays in front throughout.
