What does Tender Blossom (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens fresh and juicy with cyclamen, lychee and melon, then peony, freesia and magnolia bring the floral side forward. Cedar, musk and sandalwood sit underneath, giving a soft, lightly woody base. The overall impression is fresh, green and gently sweet.

Longevity and sillage are weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps a quiet profile. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. It reads feminine and modern. Essential Garden In Bloom and Adidas Fruity Rhythm have a close profile.
