What does Fleurs d'Été (2023) smell like?

Bergamot, bitter orange and white lilac give it a bright, fresh start. In the heart, Egyptian jasmine and Madagascan ylang-ylang build the floral body, while white chocolate pushes it towards a gourmand feel. The base of vanilla, almond and heliotrope adds a powdery sweetness, and white musk and Australian sandalwood settle it into a soft, creamy finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring, followed by summer, and it is chosen mostly for leisure and daily wear. Although it is sold as unisex, half of the voters find it feminine. Collistar Profumo di Armonia and Molinard Vanille Fruitée have a close profile.
