What does Eau de Source smell like?

The top opens with the coolness of mint, geranium and grapefruit. In the heart, cyclamen, rose, lily of the valley and jasmine make a floral garden, while algae absolute strengthens the aquatic tone. Cedar and white musk in the base soften it into a clean, dry finish.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, though the vote count is small, so treat these as a rough guide. Its light, airy build and unisex character keep it close to easy everyday wear. Calgon Morning Glory and Maison Margiela Sailing Day have a close profile.
