What does Eau de Cartier Zeste de Soleil smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps quiet. More voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it masculine, so it sits comfortably as unisex.

Yuzu and passion fruit lead, while mint adds a cool, green edge. A floral touch and some sweetness soften the fruit, keeping the blend light, bright and clean. Hugo Boss Boss Orange Made for Summer and Mary Kay Exotic Passionfruit have a close profile.
