What does Mimosa Indigo smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, with winter third and summer well behind. Daily, business and evening wear are about evenly split, and most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number find it masculine.

It opens with turmeric, Italian mandarin orange and Calabrian bergamot. Indian mimosa, lilac and white leather form the heart, where spice and flowers sit together. Musk, Papua New Guinean vanilla and New Caledonian sandalwood soften the base into a sweet, creamy, woody finish. Jil Sander Simply - The Art of Layering: Touch of Violet and Caron Santal Précieux have a close profile.
