What does Hamptons smell like?

It opens with lime blossom, bitter orange and bergamot, a bright citrus start. Magnolia and jasmine soften the heart with a floral note. In the base, amber, musk and sandalwood settle it onto a woody, slightly sweet ground.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though both camps are sizeable, so it sits comfortably between the two. Anfas Salam and Lanvin Marry Me! have a close profile.
