CreamyWhat does CH Under the Sea smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Voters place it mostly in leisure and daily wear, then at the office, with evening and night out chosen less often.
Red algae and pink grapefruit open it with a fresh, fruity, sea-breeze feel. In the heart, coconut, peony and ylang-ylang add a floral, creamy softness. Vanilla, sandalwood and amber sweeten the base and leave a warm trail as it dries.
