What does CH L'Eau (2011) smell like?

It opens with lemon, freesia and orange, a bright, fruity citrus freshness. The heart brings rose, jasmine, violet and lily of the valley, giving it a floral garden feel. In the base, cinnamon, heliotrope and sandalwood sweeten the scent and add a faint spicy, powdery and woody warmth, with a gourmand touch.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters place it in daily, leisure and business settings, while evening and night out play a smaller part. Fragonard Émilie (Eau de Toilette) and Rouge Bunny Rouge Chatoyant have a close profile.
