What does Serenade smell like?
Lemon, bergamot and mandarin orange open bright, while elemi resin and aldehydes add a sharp, clean edge. In the heart, violet, rose, jasmine and lavender build the floral side, with saffron, cardamom and clove bringing the spice forward. The base of musk, vetiver, sandalwood and vanilla settles it onto a warm, woody footing.
Voters find both longevity and sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. It reads as equally wearable on men and women and doesn't tie itself to a single season.
