PowderyWhat does Alabaster smell like?
It opens on lotus, moves to wild rose in the heart and rests on white musk. The fresh, citrus and green accords come first, with a fruity, sweet side and a soft powdery finish.
Voters find the longevity moderate and the sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most pick spring and summer, and few choose winter. It reads feminine, with a modern side too. Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Lotus and Kenzo KenzoKi - Relaxing Lotus Shh / White Lotus have a close profile.
