What does The Garden of Good & Eva smell like?

It opens light and juicy with watermelon, pear, lily of the valley and ozone. Toward the heart, violet leaf adds a green note, joined by jasmine, freesia and rosebud. In the base, sandalwood, cedarwood and musk soften the scent and close it with a powdery warmth.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Voters mostly describe it as feminine and modern. Mexx Inspired Nature for Her (Eau de Parfum) and Oscar de la Renta Bella Blanca have a close profile.
