What does Celestial smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage moderate. Voters lean towards leisure, daytime and office wear, with night out and evening less favoured. It reads neutral, suiting men and women alike.

The opening is fresh, citrusy and green: the spicy greenness of thyme and sage is softened by the fruity touch of pear tree wood. In the heart, juniper and night-blooming jasmine add a bright floral note, and cedarwood in the base closes it with a plain, woody finish. Hermès Un Jardin en Méditerranée and Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay (Cologne) have a close profile.
